The Holocaust has been a traumatic event in the history of humankind, and it has been depicted through a lens of humour, fantasy, and symbolism. The Holocaust narrative refers to a written or spoken account that recounts the experiences, events, and impact of the Holocaust, particularly the systematic genocide carried out by the Nazis during World War II. Life is Beautiful and Schindler’s List, both focus on the theme of the Holocaust and World War II. Both films explore the Holocaust and differ significantly in their tone, style, and narrative approach. The objective of this paper is to analyze how these films portray the Holocaust and Nazi atrocities by exploring the role of human relationships in providing strength and resilience during periods of extreme crisis.
