The Tattooist of Auschwitz | Official Trailer | Sky

The Tattooist of Auschwitz debuts on Sky, on 2nd May.

The Tattooist of Auschwitz tells the story of Jewish Holocaust survivors Lali and Gita Sokolov. After arriving at Auschwitz-Birkenau in 1942, Lali (Jonah Hauer-King) was made a Tätowierer (tattooist), and charged to ink identification numbers on fellow prisoners’ arms. Here he meets Gita (Anna Próchniak), leading to a love that defies the horrors around them and a determination to keep each other alive despite the constant presence of volatile Nazi SS officer Baretzki (Jonas Nay).

Around 60 years later, recently widowed Lali (Harvey Keitel) meets aspiring writer Heather Morris (Melanie Lynskey) and finds the courage to tell the world his story.

Scored by Hans Zimmer and inspired by real-life events, The Tattooist of Auschwitz debuts on Sky, on 2nd May.

As a naive young nurse about 27years ago not long after i qualified, I made a lighthearted comment to an elderly Polish Gentleman about the tattoo of his name on his hand. I jokingly asked if that was so he didn't forget his name as i took his blood pressure. I was utterly devastated when he just gave me a sad little smile and told me it was from the camps. I felt so foolish. Never forgot him, his name or the lesson i learned - Leon

Just finished watching the Tattooist of Auschwitz on Sky, which tells the true story of Lali Sokolov, a survivor of the Holocaust, who tells his story to Heather Morris, the author. In 2018 novel was published as a work of fiction, it's based on the memories of an actual Holocaust survivor, Lali Sokolov, who met Gita while they were both imprisoned at Auschwitz. But when the novel debuted, historians found a number of puzzling factual inconsistencies.

Nevertheless, let me say from the offset it is not easy viewing. It is.violent, yet riveting, profoundly horrific in parts yet poignant. And the moral to the story is whatever the odds, whatever our differences, love will always survive.

Whatever historians may say about the novel, it nevertheless transcends itself to a powerful piece of TV drama. This is the human race’s inhumanity to each other, we see it timelessly over and over again through violence and through war, fought over our incapability to respect each other’s differences. When will we ever learn that it is better to love than to hate!

I tattooed her number on her left arm, and she tattooed her number and name in my heart

This is heartbreaking, disturbing, thought-provoking, and leaves you feeling exhausted and terribly sad... It's a hard watch, but what else would a story set in Auschwitz be? Every actor plays their role to perfection, but I have to give a special mention to Jonas Nay as the psychotic SS guard. His performance as Stefan Baretzki is genuinely chilling... A classic love conquers all story, but set in hell on earth.. out of 5 stars, it's a definite 4.5

Just finished watching it. There's quite a few scenes that will hit you right in the feels. I was fighting back tears a few times.

I read the book. Glad they made it in to a movie. Horrible time for humanity.

[carole]

At last a good decent film with meaning there has not been many can't wait to watch.

[New_Opinion]

What a wonderful love story. Rest in Peace dear 🙏🏼

I know there are "facts" not correct in the series, but overall it's a great treatment of their story. I wish they had made a couple more episodes, which covered Lali opening his factory in Bratislava, his subsequent imprisonment by the Soviets, and later his factory in Australia. I didn't mean to binge watch the entire series in one sitting, but it was like a book I couldn't put down.

[jaimeforseth]

I watched the trailer and it moved me! I cannot wait to see this movie!

[dotdoughty]

I. Read. The. Book. It. Was. Really. Unbelievable. What. Happened. There.

[katica]

You can tell they’re softening the horrors of what happened for the movie, including the room he had on the cattle car and how nourished she looked. I guess so it’s more watchable?

[cclairewestt]

THE BOOK WAS SOOO GOOD, I can imagine how the movie will be

[thereviewgeekofficialYT]
