Thematic elements of what occurred to the involved families and the whole aspect of anti-Semitism and the Holocaust are what earned this film its PG rating. Various family members recount being separated from their loved ones (through relocation or being sent to concentration camps, etc.) as well as hearing that their parents were killed in such camps (all of which is told, rather than seen or recreated).
There are also tales of wartime violence from witnesses and the film's narrator, but far more of it's told than actually seen (although some brief wartime footage and shots of its aftermath are seen). In addition, the anti-Semitism and other related bad attitudes (which are obviously rated as extreme) are far more often recounted/described than actually seen.
Beyond that, most of the film's remaining categories have little or nothing in the way of major objectionable content. Nonetheless, should you still be concerned about the film and its appropriateness for yourself or anyone else in your home who may wish to see it, we suggest that you take a closer look at our detailed content listings.
