Beskrivelse
The film "Colette" was made in 2013 by Milan Cieslar and narrates a love story with Auschwitz as a back drop. The film presents a naturalistic picture of an extermination camp and the Holocaust, and stresses violence and nudity. It is the first of its kind in the Czech Republic and there are not many possibilities of how to describe the extermination camp in an innovative way. Film makers include more historic information and they have the power to manipulate the facts
