La lettre scellée du soldat Doblin

Wolfgang Döblin, son of the famous writer Alfred Döblin and a talented mathematical genius, obtained French citizenship while in exile and was mobilized as a soldier during the Franco-German War in 1939. Despite the extreme conditions at the front, he worked on his theories of random motion, particularly "memoryless random processes." At only 25 years of age, he took his own life to avoid capture by the Wehrmacht, but left behind significant works in probability theory that underscore his influence on modern mathematics.

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".
