Director Claude Lanzmann spent 11 years on this sprawling documentary about the Holocaust, conducting his own interviews and refusing to use a single frame of archival footage. Dividing Holocaust witnesses into three categories – survivors, bystanders and perpetrators – Lanzmann presents testimonies from survivors of the Chelmno concentration camp, an Auschwitz escapee and witnesses of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, as well as a chilling report of gas chambers from an SS officer at Treblinka.

A masterpiece. Pity that it was flawed by seeding hate against christians so many times on the basis of a)not doing anything, b)jew women were more beautiful, c)the words in front of Pilates, d)a supposed blood show in Corfu. It was simply not necessary and leads to hate. The enemy are the Nazi, thay forgot this too many times.

This is why you're not allowed to be a Nazi. Every second of this = "no Nazis, ever." Confused on how/whether to engage with Nazis? Just play this movie in the area the Nazis are, everyone who's not a Nazi will immediately understand their obligation, and the Nazi problem will find a solution.

Told by way of a sort of travelogue of sites of holocaust atrocity, and augmented most potently by survivors, their families and by former Nazis themselves, this documentary reveals in very considerable - and considered - detail the true horrors of the concentration camps. Claude Lanzmann doesn't us More

This is one of this movie that cannot leave anyone unmoved.

I honestly can say that I didn't get to comprehend the extension and meaning of the Holocaust until I watched this 9h documentary. Probably, I still don't even get to be close to its understanding now but this has been clear to me after More
