'Night' Shift
By Jeffrey M. Anderson Filmed just ten years after the end of WWII, this 32-minute film tells the story of the Nazi concentration camps with the most cutting, painful urgency of any film. Director Alain Resnais used stills, archive footage and new footage of the deserted camps and combined it with a brilliant score by Hanns Eisler and narration written by Jean Cayrol, who survived such a camp. Absolutely one of the most important historical documents ever made.
