Indrukwekkende debuutfilm van Hongaar Nemes over de Joodse Saul, gevangene in vernietigingskamp Auschwitz. Als lid van een Sonderkommando moet Saul andere gevangenen de gaskamers in drijven en daarna hun lijken naar de ovens brengen. Nemes drukt ons met onze neus op Sauls werkelijkheid; de camera wijkt geen moment van zijn zijde. Toch krijgen we weinig meer informatie dan wat vluchtige, onscherpe beelden in de achtergrond en flarden geluid. Dat is zowel de grote kracht als de zwakte van Son of Saul, want waar de een zijn eigen, onuitwisbare voorstelling zal maken van de hel, biedt het ook de mogelijkheid je ervoor af te sluiten.
