Shoah

a film by Claude Lanzmann ; a co-production of Les Films Aleph Historia Films with the participation of Ministry of Culture (France)
videorecording (DVD) - 2013

Over a decade in the making, this monumental investigation of the unthinkable: the murder of more than six million Jews by the Nazis. Using no archival footage, Claude Lanzmann instead focuses on first-person testimonies (of survivors and former Nazis, and other witnesses), employing a circular, free-associative method in assembling them. The intellectual yet emotionally overwhelming Shoah is not a film about excavating the past but an intensive portrait in which the past is always present.
