Manifiesto Horizontal

In 2022, the original negative of the film Javier Aguirre created in 1973 was found. It had never been shown, due to the threat of censorship, which had already targeted his short film Che Che Che. Aguirre himself had written in the label Manifiesto Horizontal. It is the Communist Manifest written horizontally with transparent glue on 35mm film. Aguirre stated that this piece “is born out precision, geometrical thinking (…) and when something happens by chance, that chance has been thoroughly studied.”

Night Will Fall

When Allied forces liberated the Nazi concentration camps in 1944-45, their terrible discoveries were recorded by army and newsreel cameramen, revealing for the first time the full horror of what had happened. Making use of British, Soviet and American footage, the Ministry of Information’s Sidney Bernstein (later founder of Granada Television) aimed to create a documentary that would provide lasting, undeniable evidence of the Nazis’ unspeakable crimes. He commissioned a wealth of British talent, including editor Stewart McAllister, writer and future cabinet minister Richard Crossman – and, as treatment advisor, his friend Alfred Hitchcock. Yet, despite initial support from the British and US Governments, the film was shelved, and only now, 70 years on, has it been restored and completed by Imperial War Museums under its original title "German Concentration Camps Factual Survey".
