THE ZONE OF INTEREST takes a unique look at this. Set in the idyllic house and garden of Auschwitz Concentration Camp Commandant, Rudolf Hoss (Christian Friedel), THE ZONE OF INTEREST shows the indifference of the Germans suffering as Hoss' house is situated just outside the wall of Auschwitz...
The Zone of Interestpresents a near-constant negotiation between what we see and what we hear—and what we unavoidably imagine—going on just beyond the Höss property walls. Sound designer Johnnie Burn implants an ever-present whir that reverberates in the spectator’s body, reminding us tha...
