Aurélio and his father-in-law Apolinar, both Kallawaya healers, have contributed to several books by German anthropologist Ina Rösing. While the former welcomes urban patients to his native village of Lunlaya at the gateway to the Bolivian Altiplano, the latter has chosen to open a consultorio in the capital, La Paz. Their intertwined trajectories raise questions about the evolution of healthcare practices and the place of anthropological works in the construction of memory.

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".
