Who attracts our attention most are two women: Life looks quite promising for both of them until Suzette widows. Then, the horror of the Nazi horror steps into her flat and forces her to flee the scene of her escape is one of the most powerful moments of the film. The arts of survival becomes a struggle unendurable for the gentle minded, kind woman who finds too few friends in the tough reality.

Soon, it is Elisabeth who will be bound to "become" Suzette Apart from a mainstay theme of a woman within the man-dominant society Walter, Elisabeth's husband manifests the 'duy above all' approach at least at the beginning of the story , the story is very daring for the time to work as an insight and the judgment of the times when Jews were persecuted solely because they were Jews. The character of Suzzette, brilliantly played by Vilma Degischer a word about the actress later is the manifestation and embodiment of victims of discrimination and appalling reality that spread around the country in the s and s.

Yes, the whole atmosphere of the entire film may remind you of something like G. So to say, most of the scenes are heavily influenced by the German Expressionism. In that relation, the film skillfully places us, viewers, within the depths of the true continuity with filming tradition and does not merely resort to sweet post-war fairy tales but displays this continuity, this tradition in the new context.

Mind you, for instance, the shots of Bukowsky's house, this light and shadow noticeable throughout, the way tension is built primarily on images. Sometimes, like in the silent era, the image, the picture tells for itself. Consider the scene Elisabeth finds out about Suzette's death. A long static shot that makes us both observers and participants. The bars of destiny's irony, the inevitable doom, the the sound of steps drawing parallels with the pulse.
