Introduction
London is one of the most exciting cities in the world: culture, history, art, parks, museums, shopping, science, music, monuments and the language.
English is the most widely spoken language in the world, and many students go to England to study the language, but most students who are learning English as a subject in a Secondary School have never been to London. Unfortunately you might not be able to visit it, in person but somehow you can, virtually, of course, on this trip to London.

THE BOY IN THE STRIPED PYJAMAS

BEFORE WATCHING: PLOT SUMMARY.

Young Bruno lives a wealthy lifestyle in prewar Germany (World War II) along with his mother, elder sister, and SS Commandant father. The family relocates to the countryside where his father is assigned to take command of a prison camp. A few days later, Bruno meets another boy, strangely dressed in striped pyjamas, named Shmuel who lives behind an electrified fence. Bruno will soon find out that he is not permitted to befriend his new friend as he is a Jew, and that the neighboring yard is actually a prison camp for Jews awaiting extermination.
