Résumé : |
The Holocaust two words forever etched on the consciousness of mankind. They resound in our minds like an implacable condemnation from a Celestial power, for a crime which rips the heart and soul out of mans moral purpose. Not just killing, but meticulously planned and executed slaughter on an industrial scale. Men, women and children, young and old, rounded up, humiliated and butchered, like a cull of diseased cattle. How could it have happened? What evil entered the mind of Man and drove him to this act of ultimate depravity? Those who suffered may have left our world, but the evidence remains writings and images that are a stark reminder to future generations of where hatred for ones fellow man can lead. It must not happen again. We must never forget. Commissioned by the French Committee for the History of the Second World War, Nuit et brouillard is widely recognised as the film which provides the most potent depiction of the horrors of the Holocaust. Even knowing about the atrocities committed in the Nazi concentration camps is not enough to prepare you for the trauma of watching this film.
Nuit et brouillard is simply one of the most poignant and shocking pieces of cinema ever created. It is all the more effective for its subdued style of presentation, as sombre and as restrained as a documentary on any other subject. In contrast to what you might expect, there is hardly any emotion in the films narration. Yet it is a film which has an immense emotional impact on its spectator.
