The Guardian: ***** “Any documentary about the Holocaust will force you to stare into the abyss. This one digs into cerebral ideas while unflinchingly documenting the atrocities carried out at the camps. It doesn’t let us forget about Auschwitz’s corpse mountains for a second, while it poses questions about art and humanity that should ring in your ears for years to come.”
The Times: ***** “This is not a performance,” (Petra Gelbart) said. “This is a testimony.” And so, in many ways, was this stunning film.”
The Sun: “It’s not a subject that has often before been talked about – making it all the more important to hear.”
Daily Telegraph: “The Last Musician of Auschwitz found a way that was so stunning and so profound that once you have watched it, you will never forget it.”
