To Live and Survive is really something different in the realm of documentaries. It dives deep into the life of Erich Finsches, a Holocaust survivor with a lively spirit. The film, crafted over six years with Matthias Jaklitsch's thoughtful direction, captures Erich's vibrant personality—he's humorous, a bit cantankerous, and unapologetically himself. The pacing shifts between reflective moments and candid discussions, creating a raw atmosphere that feels intimate. It's not just a historical account; it’s about resilience and the nuances of human spirit. The practical effects are minimal, focusing instead on the authenticity of Erich’s narrative. You feel the weight of his experiences while also enjoying his witty takes on life.
