Bailey House: To Live as Long as You Can

"The portrait of Bailey House in New York City, a former hotel where 44 AIDS patients live."

Everyday life in a house where death is omnipresent, but in which, in contrast to a retirement home, mainly younger people live. Bailey House is a former hotel where 44 AIDS patients live. A refuge for a fraction of people suffering from AIDS in the city of New York, where they find shelter, supervised by a competent team. Fellow sufferers, perhaps even friends in the face of a disease that is stigmatized by society and means social isolation for most of those affected. People of different social backgrounds meet here. However, the largest proportion is made up of young black formerly drug addicts. Bailey House, the last stop in their young life, is often even the first real home, in most cases also the most beautiful place where they have lived so far.

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".
