I just mark it, I know I can't stand it. "" "I was wrong, and I can only finish it when I feel down.
The film is titled "The Catastrophe", which is actually a talk about the catastrophe. The charm of this film is that the interview content is edited into a rhythmic monologue, without any historical images, and instead uses no historical traces at this moment. As the background of the statement, the format of the whole film is similar to "re-walking on the road of the Red Army" (I don’t know if there are other suitable words to describe it), which confirms a description of the catastrophe: History means erasing.
Although the film is nine hours long, some of the stories are extremely dramatic and shocking, no less than the stories of a certain list.
This film focuses on the modernity and innovation of the Holocaust. (Moreover, it is unrealistic to ask them whether they know or not. It is important to know that the order is a contextual concept, and the content written in this conceptual system is just one It’s just a product. Other roles and properties have nothing to do with this context. The existence of arms dealers proves this. The nature of designing nuclear warheads and designing gas chambers is not essentially different.) It also implies that in addition to the highest will, religion and geopolitics The content of ethnic contradictions in the Holocaust. From this perspective, the content that this film attempts to explain is far greater than that of the Holocaust. Of course, the Holocaust does mean not just an event at a point in time or space, but a turning point in civilization. .
The film has no background music, only interviews and some folk songs sung by the parties as embellishments.
It is said that the director of the film and Sartre shared a public intellectual, which made me feel desperate.

This film shows great respect for "death" itself. As a scholar in the film said: "Those who convert can secretly keep their faith in their hearts, and those who are expelled can come back again, but those who die will never Appeared again."

Shoah quotes

  • Franz Suchomel: If you lie enough, you believe your own lies.

  • Claude Lanzmann: You don't remember those days?

    Franz Grassler: Not much. I recall more clearly my pre-war mountaineering trips than the entire war period and those days in Warsaw. All, in all, those were bad times. It's a fact we tend to forget, thank God, the bad times more easily than the good. The bad times are repressed.
