"It's a shame." These are the last words in this movie. It's a shame that the ending is not the other way round. What beautiful scenes: life and love are stirring in this young man and this young women, no matter what the past and what the future. Life takes them by the hand, life let's the dead rest and turns their faces towards the light, towards love, towards the future! This is so divine, this is god speaking. But alas, they are driven out of paradise all to quickly, the teacher puts an end to it and destroys it with one sentence: "It's a shame." In the hearts of the Jewish people, there should be flowering gardens. Not concrete walls like in this movie. What a shame!
