* Juliek plays the violin at Buna, a forced labor camp. He plays during a selection process, a moment of fear and uncertainty where people are being chosen for either work or death.
* His audience is primarily the prisoners themselves. He plays Beethoven, a powerful and uplifting piece, in an attempt to give them strength and comfort during a terrifying time.
While it's not explicitly stated, it's likely that some guards and SS officers also hear Juliek play. His performance represents a brief moment of beauty and humanity amidst the horrors of the camp.
