Time of Darkness and Silence
An investigation of Leni Reifenstahl’s infamous film production of “Teifland” during the holocaust, one which used Sinti extras under forced labor conditions. After filming finished in 1944, these extras were sent to Auschwitz. Josef Reinhardt interviews the survivors and perpetrators, wondering if Reifenstahl knew this would happen at the end of production. Teifland was filmed from 1940-1944 but was not released until 1954. This documentary aired on television only once in 1982 and is banned in Germany to this day.

Strong and Moving!
Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.
