The Аssassination

In 1925 a group from the Military Center of the Bulgarian Communist Party blew up the church 'St. King (now 'St. Nedelya') in Sofia. As a result 150 souls perished and many more were injured. What aims did these people pursue? What should we call them today - mad, insane, terrorists, idealists? It is time we realized the bitter truth that their aim was irrelevantly obscure.

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".
