The team members behind JojoRabbit explain why they used rich colors and vibrant hues in their depiction of Hitler's Germany instead of the black-and-white or sepia-toned images that viewers are used to

“The primary goal was to show environments from a child’s point of view that had a playful nature to them, instead of an adult point of view,” says Vincent. “What the locations department came back with were these little cute Czech villages that were right on the German border. They pretty much exist the way they were, and we realized that the 1930s and 1940s in Germany were quite expressive. You see it in the palette — that it wasn’t all kind of dusty and dirty.
Filmmakers wanted to set up Jojo’s house as a kind of sanctuary and safe space where he feels protected and close to his mother. Once he walks outside and starts training with his youth group, he enters a more dangerous and unpredictable world. Adds Malaimare: “We were deliberately placing the camera at Jojo’s level, so we would see things from his perspective and feel what he was feeling. So you see his imaginary friend — Hitler [played by Waititi] — in the way a child might see him: larger than life. And the color palette is part of that, too, because when you look back on childhood, you remember things a certain way. There’s not this sense that everything has no color.
