Ida, Son of Saul, and 1945 form an unofficial film trilogy that explores the fate of European Jewry in the Holocaust and its place in post-War Europe. The central image in the trilogy is that of the cemetery and the works avoid the clichés that might emerge from this image to present extraordinary cinematic moves: an existential drama (Ida), a mesmerizing nightmare (Son of Saul), and a social thriller (1945).

| 82 minutes
