You've completely missed the points this film raises, the Holocaust is but a back drop and the camp a stage for the questions asked and in some cases answered by this film.
Mainly, what would YOU do to survive? Would you trade the lives of those around you and those of your people for another day of life? How far would you be willing to aid those intent on anailating you and yours for the promise that you (might) survive?
What is the nature of loyalty and living as an honourable human being in the face of immense personal/group suffering?
I'll leave you to work out the rest of the film for yourself.
