Bruno is very curious about many things, so it is only natural that when he sees the people in the striped pajamas behind a fence out of his window, he decides to check it out.That is when he meets Shmuel, a young Jew.

The Boy in Striped Pyjamas One of the main ideas in the film The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas directed by Mark Herman is that friendship breaks all barriers, no matter the circumstances. This is conveyed through the characters Bruno, a naive Christian boy who loves exploring, and whose father is a head officer in Hitler’s army. And his unexpected friend Shmuel, a Jewish boy who lives in a concentration camp on the opposite side of the forest that Bruno and his family live at. This is a very unusual friendship , but because of the two boy’s naive and kind hearts, they physically and emotionally break every barrier in their way that stops them from being best friends. In this Film it begins with Bruno and his family living securely in Berlin,

The movie is set in Germany in the 1940’s and tells the story of a 9-year-old boy Bruno and the trials that he endures as a result of the Holocaust. He is growing up during World War 2 and eventually loses his life. Bruno is forced into a world that he did not ask to be in and his child like innocence is what leads to his death. His desire to help others, his ignorance towards the world he lived in and his need to help someone in need sadly cost him his life. Bruno lives with his parents, his 12-year-old sister Gretel and maids, one of whom is called Maria. After a visit by Adolf Hitler, Bruno's father is promoted to Commandant. This promotion requires the entire family to pack up their life and move. Bruno is very unhappy with this change because not only will he have to leave his comfortable neighborhood and home but he also has to leave his three best friends. Bruno’s father has no sympathy for him simply because he is a military man that believes in raising his children in a strict disciplinarian manner.

Experiencing extreme pain, torture, and the possibility of death, Shmuel and Bruno are still the best of friends through the horrors of the Holocaust. The Holocaust began in the late 1930s and is thought to be the worst time in history. The Boy in The Striped Pajamas is a book about the Holocaust and a little boy named Bruno, who at the ripe age of nine years old, has a father who is a Nazi commander and is very strict. Also, Bruno has a sister named Gretel (12 years old) who thinks she is the Queen of England and likes to bother her little brother. In my opinion, Bruno is a static character in this book because he is the same person in the beginning as he is as the story ends. He is always inquisitive, always curious, and will go through a wall to find out what’s going on. Additionally, throughout the whole story, he a very nice person and a static character.

‘The boy in the striped pyjamas’ written by John Boyne and directed by Mark Herman tells the disastrous story of a young boy Bruno and his family in Nazi Germany; the family move to the countryside when his Nazi officer dad got a promotion at a concentration camp less than a mile away from their house.

The Boy in the Striped Pajamas (2008) follows a Nazi family who moves to the countryside while the father carries out an assignment at Auschwitz. At times heartwarming and other times brutal, it walks the line between dark and kitschy, offering a profound moral to its story while managing to seem irreverent. Bruno, a boy of eight years old, completes the twelve stages of the Hero’s Journey in a way that illustrates a thoughtful commentary on the interplay between ignorance and the truth. Ultimately, however, The Boy in the Striped Pajamas is an allegory about social boundaries and the consequences of transgressing them.

A major change for Bruno was when they moved from Berlin to Auschwitz. Bruno was outgoing, adventurous and had many friends. After they moved, he became lonely, sad and a little resentful to his parents. He and Gretel were home schooled and he wasn’t allow to go outside anymore. He had no idea of what was going on in the concentration camp or his surrounding and didn’t understand why he couldn’t play with the kids he saw in the camp. After he met Shmuel things started to feel a little more normal for him but unaware that his life will end very soon.

The novel The Boy in the Striped Pajamas written by John Boyne takes place in the 1940s during World War II when Adolf Hitler was in power.

At his previous home in Berlin he was accustomed to the luxury of a five story house, but he must adjust to his new lifestyle. At his new home he meets with a boy who lives on the other side of the fence where everyone wears striped pajamas. The Jewish boy, Shmuel, and Bruno become very close friends, and at the end of the novel, Bruno steps foot into the concentration camp and the two boys die together.

Bruno, initially, has ignorance about everything going on in his life. For example, his dissatisfaction with leaving Berlin is demonstrated in many parts of the story. He is shown to the reader as being innocent, immature, and unable to give things a chance. On many occasions, Bruno complains about moving to “Out-With” (Auschwitz). He continually complains before even giving himself a chance to experience it. He was whining and being stubborn. To illustrate, in the novel, the author says, “Nothing, thought Bruno, not even the insects, would ever choose to stay at Out-With.
