The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas

Bruno and his family live in Berlin. They have to move because of his father's job. Bruno doesn't like it very much because there is no-one for him to play with.

But one day he looks out of his bedroom window and he sees a concentration camp which he thinks is a farm. He runs out of his back garden to explore when he meets a boy called Samuel who is in the concentration camp. He sees him every day. He becomes friends with the boy.

One day he decides to dig a hole and climbs under the fence to find Samuel's Dad. The soldiers take them on a march and they bring them to the gas chamber. All the people take off their striped pyjamas. They think they are going to have a shower but one of the soldiers opens a hatch and drops the gas into the chamber.

I would give it four stars. It was a very good film and the book was good too.
