To Never Forget

December 1941. A group of women and a 10-year-old girl named Sorella are photographed as they are ordered to take their clothes off in freezing temperatures on a beach in the Baltic Seas. 80 years later, filmmaker Peter Hegedüs creates a dramatic recreation based on the photograph using new immersive 360 technology. He is aided by Ethel Davis, a 92-year-old Jewish Australian whose family perished in the 1941 massacre, and by the powerful testimonial of his own Jewish grandmother who managed to survive the Holocaust. To Never Forget goes beyond the depiction of a filmmaker’s process, revealing how the Holocaust continues to affect lives, families, and geopolitics today.

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".
