Camping Out: The Uncanny Slips in ‘The Zone of Interest’
Upon the idyllic sceneries of Jonathan Glazer’s latest film 'The Zone of Interest' lays a "crack," in Ido Nahari’s words. A disquieting split between the image frame and what stands just beyond, "between what is seen and what is heard." With a Freudian turn, Nahari’s opinion piece on the acclaimed movie offers a careful dissection of the Unheimlich, addressing the uncanny process of Nazi homemaking and its foundations on repression, numbness and complicity.
