About film
This experimental animated documentary about the Holocaust imitates the style of a videogame. It is a journey across many virtual models of the Auschwitz Concentration Camp (reconstructed with exceptional precision), where a viewer encounters many different characters, both real and made-up: a German prosecutor and an architect, an Israeli high-schooler, a historian and a game developer, a Polish graphic designer. The film is designed like a mosaic, where avatars of the creators wander each around their own Auschwitz.
