“Kapo”:The legendary movie in theaters once more

Nominated for an Oscar in 1961

A story about the holocaust that takes us where the hatred, violence and brutality, where people and conscience are eliminated systematically. The only hope and light in the darkness is the only thing that cannot be destroyed: love.

The screening of the film was stopped 9 times due to the strong, unanimous and endless applause of the public, while the final applause lasted 12 minutes, breaking every record in the Venice film festival. It is a very important film for Europe, with excellent performances by Susan Strasberg and Emmanuelle Riva.

“The black triangle on the sleeve is for criminals. Political prisoners wear read. Jews have a yellow star. The black triangles have the best treatment. It is the elite. Among them, the SS choose guards for their camps. They call them KAPO”.

Only one of six million untold stories that should never be forgotten. Bursting with energy. Powerful, intense, insightful, timelier than ever.
