Comparing Night and Fog to Maus

Night and Fog is a short film documentary that was filmed ten years after the liberation of Nazi concentration camps. The documentary describes the life of many prisoners who were held in the camps and features many of the buildings in Auschwitz.  Night and Fog also shows the remains of Auschwitz and describes the life of many prisoners.  Maus is a novel about one person's experience as a Jew during the Holocaust. Maus is a graphic novel about Art Spiegelman. It describes his troubled relationship with his father, and of the absence of his mother. Night and Fog and Maus both explain racial differences between Germans and Jews. Although Night and Fog is a documentary about the over all experience every one suffered through in Auschwitz, Maus is based on the experience of only one person, they both explain the suffering of innocent people during the Holocaust and Nazi brutality.
