’The Zone of Interest’ (Oscars mini episode)

'The Zone of Interest' is a Holocaust drama about a Nazi commandant’s family living next to the Auschwitz concentration camp. Though the death that surrounds this idyllic home is not shown, frequent reminders of the atrocities juxtaposed with the family’s cold demeanor make for a squeamish one hour and 45 minutes. “The Zone of Interest” carries a 93 on Rotten Tomatoes with an audience score of 78. 

It is nominated for five Academy Awards: Best Picture, Best Director - Jonathan Glazer, Best Adapted Screenplay - Jonathan Glazer, Best International Feature Film, Best Sound
