The Conference

No pun intended - this movie is based on a true event or gathering or whatever you would call it. I have to admit it has been a while since I had my history lessons and I don't have everything on hold or in the back of my mind. So I was not aware or thinking about how decisions were made back then - especially this one in particular.

There are multiple reasons why Jews were made out to be "enemies" of Germany. There is a rich history of how they have been misstreated throughout history. Apart from that, I assume two main reasons were: the money they had and to distract the German public from the war itself. That all being said, the question raised was: how to deal with them and how to do without people getting suspicious! Also how to make it ... "effecient"! A lot of things that are being said here are quite disgusting - you are supposed to be enraged by how nonchalant they talk about destroying (and the some) lives and livelihoods ... and while it remains that way (talking and not actual violence shown), this is quite difficult to watch ... because even if you don't remember everything like myself, you know where it all lead to (no pun intended here either)
