This movie depicts the last ten days in the 'downfall' of Nazi Germany in WWII with the main focus on the events happening in and around Führerbunker with all the people involved. The film mostly follows Hitler's secretary Traudl Junge with her actual monologues in the opening and closing of the movie.
The main elements that I saw in this movie were:
- Fear
- Fanaticism
- Despair
- Loyalty
- Discipline
- Discipline
- Cruelty of war
- Pride
- Devastation of a city, country, culture and a civilization
It is also nice to see that not all the Deutschland and whatever/whoever related to the war was pure evil rather that there were human beings with feelings and human concerns even among the high ranking officials of Nazi regime in the midst of the most difficult circumstances. The movie despite its tough structure and scenes, is heavily emotional at times with great acting as well as directing which makes it a fine work of cinema.
