Perdona nuestras ofensas

Was not bad for a short about Nazi Germany and the extermination of people with disabilities. Most people may not realize this actually happened un Adolf Hitler.

During or even before the second world war, the Nazi regime targeted people it deemed lesser. With Aryans allegedly and supposedly being superior to others (be it religious beliefs, skin color or simply race). One group that gets almost forgotten, are the physically disabled. Like the protagonist in this short movie.

A short movie that is very well done and that shows how cruel and mad people got back then. Tension filled and really tight, I would not be surprised if this wins (or has won by the time you read this) awards. Short and while maybe not so sweet (subject matter), this checks all the "right" boxes. Nothing to forgive here ...

Flicking through Netflix can produce mixed results, now and then you stumble across a gem, something that's a little bit different, but rewarding.

Forgive us our trespasses is very unusual, a short on Netflix, and not a film with a conventional beginning, middle and end, but just a snapshot of the life of one young boy, during the rise of The Nazis.

Beautifully presented, well acted, but an insightful look at how life was for people living with disabilities during that horrific time.

Thought provoking. 9/10.

Fair and precise remind of a less familiar aspect of Nazi Germany policy about its citizens.

A young woman, teacher. Her son, disabled, is one of her students. One day, the menace against boy. And his survive .

At first sight, holes and a too short / concentred story. But the powerful, impressive and pleasant work of young Knox Gibson is the great gift of this short film about childhood in a different light.

Soooo, when I started watching I thought this was a full length movie. When the credits rolled at 14 minutes I was like...wait a minute...LOL! I was just getting into it. Regardless, I was moved by this short and the poignant depiction of the fear, insanity, and brutality of Nazis. The beliefs and propaganda that eclipse so many, even the most vulnerable.
