Le rouge et le gris, Ernst Jünger dans la grande guerre

Result of twenty years of patient and passionate collection, constituting a fund of several thousand images taken on the German side and most of them unpublished, The Red and the Gray offers an adaptation of the famous war story by the German writer Ernst Jünger, Storm of Steel. Confronting History, photography and writing, carried here by the voice of Hubertus Biermann, the film documents the passage from the old world of 1914-1915, the Red of the 19th century, to the Gray which replaces it, that of "the inhabitant of 'a new world'.

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".
