THE SURVIVOR is a US biographical drama concerning the life of Harry Haft, a Polish Jew who survived Auschwitz concentration camp.

violence
There are strong and disturbing scenes of enforced boxing scenes in a concentration camp. These often gloveless scenes are fights to the death. A man begs his friend to beat him to death so that he can die with honour rather than at the hands of the Germans. There are also scenes in which inmates are beaten and shot.
language
The film contains strong language ('f**k'), as well as milder terms (for example, 'shit', 'piss', 'asshole', 'ass', 'damn', 'hell').
discrimination
There is discrimination in scenes set in a concentration camp (for example, 'Jew', 'Jewboy'). In one scene, German officers aggressively shout 'Jew animal!' at Harry as he fights an opponent. There are also dated uses of 'negro' and 'coloured', as well as other discriminatory terms (for example, 'spics'. 'krauts').
injury detail
There are scenes which feature fighters with heavy cuts to their faces and blood streaming down their torsos. Following boxing bouts, fighters' faces are often heavily cut and bruised.
disturbing images
There film contains scenes featuring naked emaciated corpses of concentration camp inmates.
additional issues
There are scenes of threat in concentration camp scenes. Harry hears the sound of screams from inmates inside a concentration camp gas chamber. In another scene, a German officer watches a male and female Jewish inmate bathing; however, there is limited female nudity. Harry suffers from PTSD following his experiences in the concentration camp, and experiences flashbacks and nightmares. A man briefly refers to his brother's suicide due to war trauma. There are scenes of emotional upset, and which include death references. A woman suffers from terminal cancer.
