THE ZONE OF INTEREST (12A)

Jonathan Glazer | USA UK Poland | 2023 | 105’

Told with masterful restraint by director Jonathan Glazer, who's aided by powerful performances and a utterly haunting soundscape from his Under The Skin collaborator Mica Levi, The Zone of Interest transforms Martin Amis's novel into a chilling and unforgettable treatise on complicity. The year is 1943. Rudolf Höss and his wife Hedwig strive to build a dream life for their family: their idyllic home, complete with thriving garden, is separated only by a wall from the horrors of Auschwitz, where Rudolf, a commandant, oversees the Final Solution. As Rudolf's stature in the government grows, his family remains blissfully ignorant to the atrocities going on just outside their front door – and the fact that their patriarch is a key player in one of history's darkest chapters.
