For the amusement of his captors, Salamo is forced to fight his fellowinmates brutal contests that send the loser to the gas showers.

Eine weitere Kriegsgeschichte, die von der damaligen Popularität des Boxens profitiert, die auch unter schwierigsten Bedingungen nicht nachließ. Diesmal verfolgen wir das Schicksal des griechischen Mittelgewichtsmeisters Salam Arouch. Neben einer Reihe anderer ähnlicher Filme kann man auch den Comic-Roman "Der Boxer - Die wahre Geschichte des Hertzko Haft" von Reinhard Kleist empfehlen.

A powerful film about how boxers fared when they were sent to a concentration camp during World War II. It beautifully showcases the power of the Nazis, as they found a way to entertain themselves, forcing people to fight for their lives in a different way. Willem Dafoe demonstrates his acting mastery here.
