The true story of Dr. Miklos Nyiszli, a Hungarian Jew chosen by Josef Mengele to be the head pathologist at Auschwitz. Nyiszli was one of Auschwitz's Sonderkommandos - Special Squads of Jewish prisoners placed by the Nazis in the excruciating moral dilemma of helping to exterminate fellow Jews in exchange for a few more months of life. Together, the Sonderkommandos struggled to organize the only armed revolt that would ever take place at Auschwitz. As the rebellion is about to commence, a group from the unit discovers a 14-year-old girl who has miraculously survived a gassing. A catalyst for their desperate attempt at personal redemption, the men become obsessed with saving this one child, even if doing so endangers the uprising which could save thousands. To what terrible lengths are we willing to go to save our own lives, and what in turn would we sacrifice to save the lives of others?

Movie Reviews

Detroit News - 10/10 by Susan StarkAmerican and European cinema has amassed a vast Holocaust literature, but it is impossible to think of any film more challenging or depressing than The Grey Zone.
Newsday - 10/10 by John AndersonHolocaust films are problematic, period. The Grey Zone is, sadly, more evidence of the qualities of silence.
The Moving Picture Show - 10/10 by Joe Leydon[A] devastatingly powerful and astonishingly vivid Holocaust drama.
Filmcritic.com - 10/10 by David LevineEffectively feeds our senses with the chilling sights and sounds from within the camp to create a completely numbing experience.
Creative Loafing - 9/10 by Matt BrunsonRoman Polanski's The Pianist may have been showered with Oscar glory ... but the best Holocaust film of 2002 was actually The Grey Zone.
Cinema Crazed - 9/10 by Felix Vasquez Jr.This is a masterpiece and yet another chapter of the dark period called: "The Holocaust."
St. Paul Pioneer Press - 9/10 by Chris HewittAn unflinching film, The Grey Zone takes us right into the gas chambers.
TV Guide - 9/10 by Ken FoxAn extremely difficult but worthy film, whose true horror lies in the certain knowledge that however brutal it may seem, the reality of Auschwitz was worse.
Jam! Movies - 9/10 by Liz BraunThis one is terrible to watch, but crucial to see.
Metro Times (Detroit, MI) - 9/10 by Anita SchmaltzThe Grey Zone gives voice to a story that needs to be heard in the sea of Holocaust movies...but the film suffers from its own difficulties.
