Why watch this film?

Nominated for Best Foreign Film, 'Never Look Away' is the latest movie from acclaimed German filmmaker Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck, best known for the multi-award winning 'The Lives of Others'. The filmmaker's filmography usually revolves around political life seen from a personal and intimate perspective, and here such a plot gains a magnificent post-war setting with a protagonist acting as a symbol of a broken German society by the stain of Nazism.
