Strangers

This short is about two persons that meet in a subway. I can notice that both are Jews: one of them is wearing a necklace with a Jews symbol and the other one is reading an Arabic newspaper. Suddenly a group of persons who seem to be Nazis arrive. In the moment they arrive he hides the necklace inside his t-shirt. That group of persons sat near one and painted a Nazis symbol in the newspaper he was reading. It is full of tension everybody is watching straight at the other’s eyes like waiting for something to happen. When the train stops and when they were about to get out, rings the cell phone of one of them but not with any ringtone, it is a Jewish song. The Nazis noticed that he was also a Jewish. So the Nazis stared at him not only because of the music also because of the fact that he couldn’t find the phone in his backpack. Then he finds it, turns it off and put it away. An instant after that the Jews run and they Nazis went behind them trying to get them. They both passed through the door and one second after they passed the doors closed automatically leaving the Nazis inside the train, they seemed to be angry not to catch them and they were hitting the windows with anger. Once out of the danger the Jews yelled at them as they passed through, changed their backpacks, waved at each other and finally left going to opposite sides.

Religion is very present in this short video. These persons in the video represent the bad relationship between Nazis and Jews. This “hatred” between them started when Hitler assumed the power. Before the Nazis chased the Jwes and sent them to the gas chamber to be killed and also they were used as “laboratory rats” because they tested what effects had the new medicines in humans such us vaccines or drugs. In my opinion it is a good representation of the kind of relationship the different religions have when they meet.
