This post-Holocaust drama, while admittedly quite engrossing to watch, can't avoid coming across as overly streamlined to offer easy catharsis for a mainstream audience.

The movie reveals so many secrets and twists that it threatens to dilute its message. When a visit to Auschwitz becomes little more than an appreciation of a pretty meadow, the script flirts with banality.

Formulaic and uninspired ...

An eye-opening story about the importance of seeking the truth.

What should have been a fairly direct look at a culture hiding from itself becomes an overdone, angst-everywhere exercise.

The movie is a strong account of a lesser-known episode of post-Holocaust history raised above its obvious cinematic formula by Fehling's anchoring performance and the film's wise approach to the survivors' horrific testimony.
