This story is based on the real life experiences of Salamo Arouch, a middle weight boxing champion of the Balkan countries.

Customer Reviews

A Powerful Film.

This is one of the best films that depicts the incredible pain, suffering, and ultimately, survival during the Holocaust. The film covers many aspects of the Holocaust; ghetto life, resistance, transport, selection, and many of the "choiceless choices" that people were forced to make. This film makes the statistics of those who suffered into a powerful personal testimony. I highly recommend this film.

An Extraordinary Portrayal Of Unthinkable Cruelty

I have seen many films of what happened in Nazi death camps but this is the first movie that I watched that made me feel I WAS ACTUALLY THERE experiencing firsthand what tragically happened. I'm amazed I haven't heard of this film before. Perhaps one of the top 5 movies I've seen in my lifetime. A MUST SEE!
