In this year's Oscars nominations, alongside the well-known films like Barbie and Oppenheimer, there is one that has surprised many film fans. 'The Zone of Interest,' a Holocaust movie, has received five nods, including Best Director and the highly coveted Best Picture gong. What's even more surprising is that the director, Jonathan Glazer, is also known for his work in classic adverts and music videos.
'The Zone of Interest,' loosely adapted from a 2014 novel by the late author Martin Amis, has already been named the best film of the year by the Los Angeles Film Critics Association. The film follows the story of Auschwitz commandant Rudolf Höss and his wife Hedwig as they strive to build a dream life for their family near the camp.
