Without dramatic re-enactment or archival footage but with extraordinary testimonies Shoah renders the step-by-step machinery of extermination, and through haunted landscapes and human voices, makes the past come brilliantly alive.Shoah [1985], at 550 minutes, is a work of genius alone, an heroic endeavour to humanise the inhuman, to tell the untellable, and to explore in unprecedented detail the horrors of the past. It is one of the most powerful and important, and greatest, films of all time.A Visitor from the Living [1997] is based on an interview conducted by Lanzmann with Maurice Rossel during the filming of Shoah. A member of the Berlin delegate for the International Committee of the Red Cross from 1942, Rossel was the only member of the organisation to have visited Auschwitz in 1943, and to have also paid a trip to the model ghetto of Theresienstadt in June 1944.Sobibr, October 14, 1943, 4PM [2001] recounts the prisoner uprising that took place in the Sobibr death camp in Poland. Only 50 prisoners ultimately evaded capture, while the rest were sent to their murders in the gas chamber.The Karski Report [2010] is Lanzmanns brief film on Jan Karski, the Polish resistance figure who also featured in the final section of Shoah, and which recounts Karskis powerful testimonial given to Franklin D. Roosevelt and Supreme Court Justice Felix Frankfurter on what he witnessed during a trip to the Warsaw Ghetto and to the extermination camp Belzec.","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49032330543426,"sku":"344320","price":49.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/51UcY0YuRiS._SL1500.jpg?v=1718250477","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/shoah-blu-ray","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
