Document Summary
Seldom 100% first person pov, more often just focus on main character. First person and omniscient pov used most often. Can"t go in restaurant because sign says no jews. Forced to wear armbands with star of david. Need to walk in guttey and bow to officers. Germans storm house, threw man in wheelchair off balcony, then had remaining jews of that house run in street, shooting them dead as they ran. Main character comes home to ransacked house. Burning of dead bodies on the side of the road. Looking through the door to see the cello player. Often looking to window and seeing what he"s looking at. After he played given low angle, given power after playing. Eye level when they (him and the german soldier when he was playing piano) creating equality between the two. Good and bad on both sides, a little more complicated than normal holocaust movies.
