This was an incredibly disturbing film but it showed that someone like Rudolf Hoss could separate his work from his personal life. A true inspiration for those now who tend to bring their personal life to the office or office home.
During the movie you can hear the shots and cries from the prisoners in the distance, even the smoke stake makes an appearance in the movie.
I'm not sure what the environment was like living there, the noise and smoke at times must've been difficult for the children.
