an interesting movie about persecution is THE BOY IN THE STRIPED PAJAMAS

It is a dark film, not really very much fun to watch.. but it deals fairly with the topic of profiling and the subsequent persecution of a group. It uses symbolism to compare and contrast the two groups presented in the film, and it shows how the mindset of persecution is cultivated in a society from the youth upward. It also shows how everyone in a society is affected by the mindset of persecution, not just the target group.

If you like symbolism, this film uses it very well to makes a variety of points. If you don't like symbolism, you may not like the movie at all, because most of what the film says well, it says symbolically.
