The Holocaust in film: witnessing the extermination through the eyes of children

ABSTRACT A number of filmmakers cinematize the Holocaust from the standpoint of children, making them the main characters and depicting the genocide through their eyes. Most of such films are framed, at least in part, as a fairy tale, whereby the Holocaust becomes the dominant evil to face and overcome. In the minds of children, the persecution and genocide that simply cannot be imagined as part of their everyday reality become a supernatural evil over which good must triumph. These films do not deny the Holocaust as myth but use those simple and familiar qualities to illustrate its severity.
