They did a really good job with this scene the juxtaposition of the happy kids with the frantic and fearful adults makes the chaos a lot more scary for some reason
The ignorant innocence can be taken advantage of. That's what scares the audience. We are informed, the lack of information will make it hurt that much more
I understand this concept and I agree, but I feel like as soon as the parents got close enough and you can see the horror in your mother's face and hear her scream they may start to question it.
The point is that these scenes began as actual footage from the Nazis. It wasn't enough for them to see it happen, so they filmed it for proof of a job well done for their hero Hitler and his cohorts. These men were given medals of honor for these actions. Hundreds of hours of that footage was poured over & then duplicated by Hollywood. It may be actors you are watching here, but these very same things ACTUALLY HAPPENED. You can watch the footage at the Library of Congress archives, Museums throughout the world hold them as well, though you should prepare yourself. It is not Hollywood. It is much worse than even Schindler's List could show both legally and respectfully. Please heed my warning if you do seek them out. And please ONLY do so to learn, remember, prevent, and with the utmost respect for those on the films being persecuted & ripped from their families, told they were going to amazing places & that their parents would wave them off on their adventure. They are NOT actors. These things are real and really happened to them. Less than a lifetime ago.
Imagine the fear these kids must have felt when they actually got there, finally realizing their parents were trying to tell them it was a trap, only to see the canister fall down
That wasn't what the Schindler's list was about. Schindler's list was created by a man called Schindler he got all the children sent to a factory he bought under the guise of making ammunition but because the children were unable to build functioning ammunition, he paid out of his own pocket to buy ammunition from outside and claimed that the children made those. He later looked for chances to send the children out of Germany then bribed Nazi soldiers with again his own money and saved more kids. At the end he died with nothing to his name and he saved thousands of children. It was only later when the Nazis lost that the Jews that he saved stood up and told the world what really happened to those on the list.
It's heartbreaking and it's even worse knowing the best case scenario that the parents, and us now as we look back on those atrocities, could only hope their children's fear didn't continue for long before they passed.
There's a sociologist that actually did a study on the defendants in the Nuremberg Trials and German citizens. Basically realized that good is subjective, and a lot of the people genuinely believed what they were doing was for the greater good of society.
The cruelty is just out of this world. I still can’t wrap my head around this. Those people and especially those kids are so innocent and yet those hypnotized beasts murdered each and everyone of them
@@jyorgbjornsen to point that out is one thing, but to approve of this part of history is another. It isn’t some prophecy that hitler should have fulfilled, that is actually insane. Kanye is not fully right in the head and shouldn’t be asked to speak on shows, because now other people are absorbing everything he says. When really? He’s apart of it all. I won’t go too much into that, you can take that how you will. Just remember the tactic of embarrassment.
@@jyorgbjornsen why would you feel guilt for being white? You aren’t your ancestors, but it is your duty to assure that relapses do not occur by exercising the power that is within your reach. It’s all of our duties to right the wrongs of our history. Guilt doesn’t do that, and nihilism by means of comparing two evils surely doesn’t do that. Widening perspective and taking actions when necessary, does. Screw the division, that is what people with more power want to happen. When we are broken as people, we hold no power. We are the building blocks of this world. if we started unifying more, *anything* could be done.
This makes me think of an interview they did with a woman who survived the Holocaust and she said they were marching her and the other kids to the gas chambers while the parents were behind a fence screaming watching their children blissfully unaware that they were gonna die. 💔 I cannot imagine being a parent and knowing your babies are in danger or watching them go to their death.
Every parent has parental instincts by which they simply, and wholly tend to protect, nurture, and be with thier offspring. The creation of God is beyond comprehension; beautiful to the core.
I am German and I know that my great-grandfather hated this madness. He was a merchant and helped many Jews to escape and very often had trouble with the Gestapo because he was rebellious against the system. I’m very proud of him.
As a mother this sent true, genuine panic coursing through me for a solid 15 minutes. I remember watching this movie for school and barely blinking twice during this scene. Oh how to perspectives change
Literally me watching this right now. I watched this when I was younger and it didn't affect me, but now that I have a 4 year old.... Yeah I teared up bad
@@yazdan7774 ever heard of the holocaust? Research it and you'll understand. Use some context clues. Screaming parents and happy children. Yea that says something horrific is gonna happen. And it did in real life. God rest their souls.
@@mgway4661 Death Camps were common knowledge to Western Allies too. They just kept it secret from everyday folks and GI's. That's why lots of them were shocked when they discovered.
Forgetting as we live our lives how lucky we are. We must not forget the absolute brutality of this, all those poor innocent children, the heart break of their parents 😢
@@kristydurbin7070 the children are being sent to their deaths. along with the elderly and pregnant women, children had the lowest chance of survival during this time. however they werent killed because they were children but because the nazis were concerned with racial and biological differences as well as them being in opposing political groups. just as young german children were in nazi youth groups
@@kristydurbin7070 I didn’t watch the movie so I assumed they were being sent to the re-education schools to then be adopted by Germans, but now that I think abt it they were sent off to either a child camp or to be killed
I'm czech and I think I speak for every European country when I say that learning about this when you're 12 was terrifying. The suffering in that time affected people to this day. Great depiction of no hope.
yeah, i was brought up in the uk and learnt about this when i was 10. i cried in class and it’s terrifying knowing that can happen when you are so young. but it’s also important
@@llama2063 The clip is from the movie Schindler's list. It's a retelling of some events during the second world war. The kids shown in this clip are being deported to a KZ where they're going to die. Either that or they're being executed
Damn this shit just made me cry. Fucking heartbreaking. I couldn’t imagine my children being so innocent they can’t even conceive the horrors going on around them…fucking riding off in joy thinking they’re getting a treat and just being there powerless, terrified, and feeling like my heart is getting ripped out of my chest. And never seeing them again. Shit makes me want to throw up on grief just thinking about it.
Heartbreaking scene. Mother's not caring about their own safety but instead run after the truck to try and save their child from inevitable death. The stampede was amazing
@@heb-agar6119 This was a movie about the holocaust. The children were being taken to gas chambers to be killed. That’s why the mothers became so severely fearful, the children didn’t have any idea and the adults were trying desperately to save them.
The saddest part is this was all a reality and true story. We don’t watch this scene holding our breath that they make it to their kids and that they’ll be alright, we watch this scene already bawling because we know it’s inevitable and what’s about to happen.
it's so sad... but I'm glad that was all in the past. I'm not glad it happened. I feel so sorry for those parents and kids. the look on the parents faces just made me want to bawl my eyes out..
I remember in high school we had to get our parents permission to watch this movie in our history class. I cried from beginning to end. This movie was so heartbreaking especially the end because he thought he didn’t do enough.
@@Eli-pt9ft The movie is Holocaust basically. The parents running are trying to run to their children who are in the trucks. Most kids are sent to die while the parents are forced to stay to do the labor work. The movie involves Oskar Schindler who is a german nazi but he had a company that gave jewish people work and actually paid them he worked and tried to save every one of them till he had no choice to flee the country with his wife since the allies were coming into germany so if they saw Oksar who was a nazi, they'd kill/arrest him and his wife. At the end, one of his workers pulled his gold tooth out, melting it to cast a golden ring to gift it to Oksar as a last Thank you which Oskar began to cry, wanting to save more jews from the chaos. (The gift was behalf of everyone Oskar hired and saved.) Theres a a video of the holocaust survivors and the actors who played them at Oskar's physical grave in real life.
Unfortunately, I do. People unconsciously discourage others from showing empathy for anyone outside their immediate friends and family, they don’t even realize they’re doing it. Empathy and impartiality are seen as a weakness that should be crushed. No one realizes or cares that this lack of empathy leads to atrocities, until it’s far too late. I’ve come to accept that we are all hardwired to be extremists, it’s an ancient psychological defense mechanism that will continue to cause chaos far into the future.
This made my heart sink because the kids are just so blissfully unaware but all the parents know that their children are being sent to die. That was truly an awful period of time and I hope humanity can continue to learn from this so that we can live peacefully and at some point in our history move beyond needless killings and war.
Yes, but in the end they did the same with the children in Palestine. Fyi Palestine gave land to them, now what we found. They have no mercy. they are greedy. What I should have learned is never to be too nice with someone. Funny right? Im laugh actually

Just watching this short clip gave me goosebumps and made me cry. I can't imagine the agony of those parents while watching them and those children not knowing anything about what's gonna happen to them, the confusion they might've felt on why their parents are running like that. It's sad enough for parents to outlive their children but watching their children go to their doom is probably more horrifying.
@@monkebird7716 It's the holocaust. All the Jews, cripples, gays and non whites went to camps. Families torn apart, lot of crying and screaming. Idk the movie tho
These are the Nazis, World War I and II, Hitler wants to conquer the whole world, they took children from the camp to Hitler's experiments, killed them with gas...! The film is based on the true stories of survivors, Serbs, Jews and Roma! Watch the true film " "Dara from Jasenovac". .
Should have been the Imperial March song, A terrible corrupt order were the government uses children as soldiers and brainwashing them to think that that's a good thing, all just so that government conquers more territory and has more political power..
I remember being at the supermarket one time, and a lady's daughter had wandered off. She was running through the store screaming her daughters name. I could hear her from the other end of the store, the panic and the desperation in her voice was something i'll never forget. This scene always reminds me of that moment.
I know it can be hard in that kind of moment to think straight, but shouting your childs name gets you nowhere. You should be shouting their description not their name. Then everyone can be on the lookout. Ain't no one leaving with your child if they don't wanna draw attention.
@@moonrainchildtv Yeah i don't think the mother was thinking that. Or thinking at all. She didn't care about how it looked or anything like that, she just wanted her kid back. And kids just do that. I remember when i was a kid the amount of times i wandered off and got lost at the shops was crazy. Thankfully i was always taught to go straight to the check outs or to anyone who worked there and get them to page my folks.
In Viet Nam there is this old song based on true events back in the 30s when Viet Nam was part of the French Colony. The song is about a mother who heard the new of her soldier son being beheaded and the French displayed his head in the crowded place of the village. The mother didn’t shed a tear, she calmly carried a basket to pick up her son head. The song was so sad!
A summary: The kids in the truck are going to be burnt alive but they were told they were going somewhere fun, the parents know the truth and are trying to get them down
When I first watched this as a teenager, I understood what was happening but I didn’t feel the panic and sorrow of the parents. Now that I’m a father to a young boy, I weep bitterly at this scene trying only to put myself in their situation.
Oh my God I was actually about to comment the exact same thing. I have a 1 year old boy and this scene just hits sooo different when you become a parent. I don’t think being a mom I could rewatch this movie, it’s a lot for me 💔
This is a brilliantly made movie. All throughout Spielberg uses juxtaposition to contrast between calm and scenes and it creates a really powerful jarring effect that keeps you on edge the whole film. This scene is a perfect example. It gives me chills every time.
It’s just sad that the kids think there gonna take a shower when there gonna die :( and the fact some kids hide and 3 kids hid inside of the toilet is so gross
can you believe that this actually happened? How could we do this to people, how could a human willingly take part in this? Genocide is never the answer, NEVER. It’s heartbreaking
right now in my country Iran, we've been seeing this scene over and over again every single day , they are arresting teenagers , murder whoever stand against this violence, they are ravishing girls for standing for their right and completely deny what they do...please be our voice💔
That's so sad. They probably told those kids that their parents would be proud and frantic with happiness qnd they were gonna come home soon after a wonderful trip as heroes. Almost makes me wanna cry
@@Maddiesluvs1111 the movie is called "schindlers list" either give thar a watch or search it up & have a bit of a read/research on it, there are a few other comments that have a explained it also though so you could even just dig a bit further into the comments on this video & find out instead of asking a random to explain it again lol good luck finding out ✌
@@Maddiesluvs1111 its a movie about the Holocaust where the children were told they are going to somewhere safe/ good and they will be back with there parents again soon , the reality was different and the parents knew it...
Hello, Do you know 100% sure you’re going to Heaven, if you die today? The Bible says you can know. It’s not about being a good person, being baptised or “repenting of your sins.” There’s only ONE thing you’ve got to do. We’re all condemned to Hell because we’re sinners - “For the wages of sin is death” (Romans 6:23). The Bible mentions a “second death” in Revelation: “…and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” (Revelation 21:8)🔥 👉Search, *The Bible Way to Heaven*

@@tovarishchblyad3616 alot but not this scene. It was to pull your heart strings and make u feel bad. The children were taken in sweeps and morning role call, not paraded in trucks like they show here.
I’m on the verge of watching it. Every time I decide to sit down and watch, the DVDs in the player. All I Gotta do is hit play. I can’t do it. This is the scene that comes to mind. It Breaks my heart.
Watching this scene for the first time when I was young it was heartbreaking and confusing. Now as a parent, is life shattering, gut wrenching and I feel like I can’t breathe. I would die if this happened to my little girls, I cannot imagine the feelings of these parents and their children, while the horror is happening and I don’t ever want to. I can’t, it’s too much
@@marquistf1996 you do know that the children were brought to the gaschambers right? Not just normal separation but straight up watching your kids get shipped off to slaughter whilst they don't realize.

This literally gave me chills. You can faintly here music or some other background noise and it makes this scene all the more terrifying apart from the screams and the differing expressions of the children and parents.
@@Sxarlett-Cloudy they'd play music over the speaker to put them at ease and keep the people calm so they'd be less likely to realize the danger they were in and freak out. Kinda like how they would trick them into the gas chambers by saying they were showers.
It is the most heinous and worst crime to separate children from their parents, literally heart breaking scene,may these innocent children and their parents rest in peace😢😢
The fact that they are trying so hard to stop the truck and the kids thinking that they are going somewhere fun but sadly the parents know the actual truth and started to panic
@colin reardon he's an idiot that doesn't know history. Ignore his dumb ass. He doesn't realize life isn't black and white. He can't understand what natives did to eachother for God knows how long and I really doubt he understands war and the allies we made with the natives to help fight other natives. Was it bad of course but point any direction and no one is innocent. Natives killed women and children too. It all sucked.
This is one of those masterpieces that I will probably never watch again. Literally had a smoke break after watching, thanking the night skies for being blessed. We often forget how blessed we truly are at times, man…
I know it we feel so contempt with our cushy lives when these people went through this just 80 years ago. Still today so many people operate on hating a person just for where they came from and what they believe in, which keeps the thought that this could happen again
To paraphrase Haneke, The film is disgusting for its commodification of one of the most horrible evils humanity has ever done. Tragedy as entertainment
This movie is very depressing but it was filmed and done beautifully, it works with body language and emotions so well. When I watched this movie in a history class, I cried at this scene. It’s so heavy because you know where the children are going and seeing them so naive is heartbreaking
made me cry seeing how the kids were laughing and smiling while the parents running to them KNOWING in fear of their kids they are being sent away to their own death
You are lucky you weren't born in such a place*.. Zionists are doing this to Palestinians, only day before yesterday a 10 year old boy died from fright as soldiers entered his home, yesterday a 12 year old was beaten up by 2 soldiers. Many kids have been shot, locked up, made homeless but a big part of the world still trades with Israel, allowing it to continue its atrocities. Same with what India is doing to Kashmir. What Myanmar did to Muslims, what Chinese are doing to Uyghurs.
Imagine just living and then being raided by bandits or barbarians? There have been worse times throughout history. We just remembered this era because it’s sooner than before.
Um memorbilia and many other thgs...puts ✓'s on others to make sure this IS understood... surely many of us were set up by paperwork propaganda but it still stamped it.
Idk why, but somehow it just hit me. That feeling of absolute, indescribable fear that they must have been feeling, all while their kids smiled and waved. It hurts so bad to know this is what humanity can become. Edit: damn, ppl in the comments rly need to chill and stop making every little word of my comment something to argue about. This isn't twitter.
@@junkoenoshima9746 you do realize I'm Jewish right?

I know it's a movie but this did happen. 4.6k?! Woah. THAT'S ACTUALLY ALOT WOW. tysm! ♡ Ps. You all must know it was far worse than in movies and we have books written by survivors today. Nowadays they are trying to act like the holocaust never happened so let's spread awareness, it did happen ♡ //EDIT: my great-grandmother the one I mentioned recently just passed away, at least she is happy now, but her life story along with a lot of others will be remembered thank you, everyone, everyone that was respectful in the comments♡)
@@e_puffin This was during nazi Germany when Hitler had concentration camps built to house, torture and kill Jewish people. This is a movie based off of that.
@@e_puffin some were killed right away, some that looked like "ideal" german, meaning blond with blue eyes were taken for "re-education" but there is not much of work for children in work camps, so you know how most of them ended. After first squadrons of policemen who were unwilling to shoot people one by one daily said their no, because the first ones to put into this job were policemen and it took too many soldiers out of battlefield to do this one by one approach, goverment asked for efficient solution that would get rid of most people with the least effort. So later they were all, adults or children put into gas chambers. Some children were smuggled into safety by good samaritans, some were hidden, some were shown mercy by individuals. There is actress in my country who was born to her parrents long time after her twins sisters, barely 6 at that time were hidden with non jew family. They wanted them to be safe. Gave them jewelry in case something happened to them, so they are not left without means. They survived the war and returned for children. The family gave them to soldiers and kept jewelry parrents gave the children. Children were taken to camp and killed long before parrents returned. Children of war have the most terrible stories.
Soon it will happen. As the past is being erased by the group who claims opposite to those beliefs. Slowly already happening. Hopefully it gets halted before it reaches to that level of horror. The stories I heard.
