The chilling Holocaust drama from director Jonathan Glazer focuses on the lives of Auschwitz commandant Rudolf Höss (Christian Friedel) and his wife Hedwig (Sandra Hüller) as they build their dream lives in a house next to the concentration camp.

Digital Spy called The Zone of Interest "a harrowing but necessary watch, and one of the best movies of 2024" in a five-star review.

"The Zone of Interest is about what lies behind the unseen – the world-changing horrors that linger on the other side of a wall, and the inhumane order and bureaucracy that choose to ignore it," we wrote.
