The Israel-Hamas war was noted from the Oscars stage on Sunday in an acceptance speech for \u201cThe Zone of Interest,\u201d<\/a> which follows the domestic life of a Nazi commandant whose house is just outside the Auschwitz concentration camp.<\/p>\n

The director Jonathan Glazer read from prepared remarks after the film won for best international feature, offering thanks to collaborators before turning to the conflict.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll our choices were made to reflect and confront us in the present \u2014 not to say, \u2018Look what they did then,\u2019 rather, \u2018Look what we do now.\u2019 Our film shows where dehumanization leads at its worst. It shaped all of our past and present.\u201d<\/p>\n

Glazer, who is Jewish, said that he rejected \u201cJewishness and the Holocaust being hijacked by an occupation, which has led to conflict for so many innocent people,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
