Kapo is a black-and-white film that tells the story of a Jewish teenager sent to a concentration camp with her parents. She manages to survive with help from a Jewish doctor who gives her the identity of another woman who had died recently. Thus, Edith becomes Nicole and she is no longer a Jew, at least not in the papers. At first she is very sad about her parents' deaths, but as time passes she realizes she must get out of that mood if she wants to survive. So at 14 she submits to a German officer's advances and is rewarded with privileges; in time she becomes a Kapo, one of the women prisoners who were in charge of disciplining the other women. Though she knows it's the only way to survive, she hides deep remorse behind an expressionless face.

Movie Reviews

Seanax.com - 3/10 by Sean Axmaker... the documentary detail of the physical recreation and the matter-of-fact evocation of life under such conditions gives it a power beyond the plot...
User Review - 10/10 by W. WThe grueling difficulty of survival in a Nazi concentration camp. A gritty drama of idealism and sacrifice.
User Review - 10/10 by shelly bIf you thought Pontecorvo's "Battle of Algiers" was powerful and provocative, strap in, because this will rock you just the same, if not more. The holocaust may seem like a tired subject, but a film of this caliber makes it feel just as relevant and pressing as ever.
User Review - 10/10 by Byron Bthis movie is soo good! i would say its the best foreign film ever...see how brutal the nazi were even to non jews...i strongly suggest this movie!!!
User Review - 8/10 by Martin TOne of the first films to depict the horrors of the holocaust. Gillo Pontecorvo's blunt, realistic style is perfectly suited for such grim subject matter. Not nearly as well known as his other films, Kapò is a fantastic little hidden gem that's anything but uplifting.
User Review - 8/10 by Michael SLittle known and overlooked but worth watching.
User Review - 6/10 by Scott RA well made film, but do we need to fictionalize the holocaust with cliche in order to get a point across?
User Review - 6/10 by Jay K. RKapò was a privilege prisoner in the concentration camps that was assigned as a SS-guard for the rest of their fellow prisoner. The Kapò was very unpopular among the prisoners because of their brutality. In Gillo Pontecorvo's Kapò, we follow the young Jewish girl, Edith (Susan Strasberg) who has manage to escape from the Jewish camp and over to another camp for political prisoners, thanks to a doctor. They are not as badly treated as the Jews, but it's still very brutal, and when Edith are appointed Kapò, she becomes hated by her fellow prisoners, who supported her in the beginning. Kapò is a typical anti-war movie of its time. Although I would have expected
User Review - 6/10 by Private UCaught this late one night on TCM. Very compelling and interesting stuff.
