The Tattooist of Auschwitz

I've been to Auschwitz, I've stood where those poor people stood, and I was affected in a way I never thought possible when I walked around the remains of that camp... It makes watching this even more harrowing and at times incredibly difficult. You will be moved to tears on many occasions while watching this piece of stunning television. It's a very tough watch but totally worth every minute. It's a solid 10/10 from me and just incredible.

What an incredible good show, good story telling and very well acted, solid 10/10.

About the horrific and evil atrocities committed against the Jewish people, that sadly still exist in other ways today. How Palestine sent official delegates to the nazi concentration camps, along with Palestinian leader al-Husseini, who supported an ant-British coup.

This series gave me goosbumps from time to time. I bingewatched all episodes in one day. It is sometimes so beautiful yet so horrifying. This is something that everyone should watch to better understand what happened in the past

I appreciated the humanity and complex relationships of this horrific period of history. It's well-done and a must watch.

Incredibly moving series, even better than the book I think

Based on a book that did not do the necessary historical verification with many errors and falsehoods, this series announced as a great production falls into all the excesses and clichés of Nazi representation, with embarrassing sequences of violence (German officers laughing evilly while hitting children). The script introduces Heather Morris (Melanie Lynskey) and how her conversations with Lali Sokolov (Harvey Keitel) affect her emotionally, but continually indicates that he is an old man who has nightmares and hallucinations, a not-so-subtle way of disassociating itself from the criticism to the veracity of the story.

The fact that the series are based on a memoir of a survivor makes it more reliable and hopefully take some wind out of the sails of those who deny the Holocaust.
However, I had seen far too many inaccuracies from the props and make-up side. As I have known many who survived death- and concentration camps - and a few from Birkenau - there were no such thing as gypsies playing violins, as all personal possession were confiscated upon arrival. (Let's be honest, you can hardly sneak in a musical instrument, let alone playing that without the guards noticing and shoot you on the spot.
Faces, hands and feet were too clean, costumes were a far cry from what people were wearing.
Besides the above, I still highly recommend to spread the word about this series as it is a must to watch, especially for the young generation.

Well done. Endearing. Difficult story to tell.
