Analyze the extent to which this film speaks out against injustice

Discrimination and injustice are powerful and dangerous actions in the world. Discrimination and injustice during the Holocaust cost millions of Jews and other people their lives. This film helps to speak out against discrimination as we come to know and love the characters, and then we see the terrible actions against them.

Even in the beginning of the film we see the problems that discrimination can cause. Dora's family believes that Guido is not good enough for her and Rodolfo looks down on him because he is poor. Even the simple fact that Guido is not allowed to meet with Rodolfo is an instance of discrimination. Rodolfo loses Dora to Guido because Guido's heart is kind, and he treats everyone equally.

Speaking out against discrimination is an important them in the film. Not only should people not discriminate against others, but also when we see discrimination we should speak out. Because the rest of the world took so long to discover and speak out against the plight of the Jews, thousands, even millions, of lives were lost that could have been saved.
