Review of Primo

Primo (2005 Video)
Testimony
6 January 2011
A testimony. About Nazi camp, human pain, a world, a life. A monologue. A surviver.And his story. A monologue. Confession, descriptions, memories, fight against shadows. Lesson about basic values. A delicate and powerful manifesto. A dialog about the existence more than accident.It is more than adaptation of Primo Levy's books. It is more than a slice of Shoah. It is a sea of silence. A wall. Ash and flesh as parts of a huge wall. Food for strong belly, the movie is , in same measure, a homage and moral thorn. In fact, it is picture of our society. Small details, large heavy traces. A man. As shadow of many others. A film behind definitions. A "Mementi mori" or only mirror. Nothing complicated. Every - warm. Words, faces, gestures, pain. And a man talking. About the humanity as sense of life.
