What promised to be a complex story of a Jewish man forced to navigate the horrors of Auschwitz ends up being a tedious story with no emotion. The terrors are glossed over creating a hollow series with a main character that lacks any depth. Considering it is a fictionalised take of the most famous and deadly concentration camps in the Holocaust and one man's recollections, the main character gives little impact and no emotion and comes across as a detriment to his own story.

A beautiful cast brings the reinvented classic to life as elevated characters whose passion and desire shine.

Audiences will be captivated by the similarities between Ariel and Eric, who both share a sense of adventure and longing.
