Hatred

Hatred (2016) is an unflinching and brutal war drama. Audience emotional responses are dominated by intense negative feelings. Sadness and Disturbing content are paramount, reflecting the film's tragic depiction of ethnic cleansing and the horrors of World War II. High levels of Fear and Anxiety are evoked by the constant threat to the protagonist's survival amidst the chaos. Anger and Disgust arise from the portrayal of senseless violence, betrayal, and inhumane acts. Empathy is strongly felt for the suffering characters, particularly Zosia, as she navigates unimaginable atrocities. While a glimmer of Love exists at the film's outset, it is quickly overshadowed by Melancholy and a pervasive sense of loss and despair. The film leaves a lasting impression of the profound human cost of conflict and hatred.
