Full Plot Details

April 1945. In Germany, as World War II was drawing to a close and the Allied Forces were swarming into Berlin, groups of freshly trained combat cameramen documented the gruesome scenes behind the recently liberated Nazi concentration camps. Named "German Concentration Camps Factual Survey", the 1945 documentary for the British government was produced by Sidney Bernstein, with Alfred Hitchcock's participation. For nearly seven decades, the film was shelved in the British archives and was abandoned without a public screening--for either political reasons or shifted Government priorities--to be ultimately completed by a team of historians and film scholars of the British Imperial War Museum, who meticulously restored the original footage. Intertwined with interviews of both survivors and liberators, as well as short newsreel films and raw footage from the original film, the 2014 documentary chronicles the atrocities that occurred in the concentration and labour camps of Bergen-Belsen, Auschwitz, Majdanek, Dachau, and Buchenwald, also including footage from Soviet cameramen. Without shying away, the camera pans on the German SS officers, lingering on the bony, emaciated faces of the piled-up-like-dolls bodies of men and women who were mercilessly thrown into pits during the mass-grave digging operations. However--even though the film documents a world of nightmare, exposing the undeniable truth of what has been going on within these camps--it also focuses on the healing process of the completely dehumanised survivors, in an attempt not only to serve as a testimony of the Nazi crimes, but also as an important lesson for all mankind.

Movie Reviews

Guardian - 10/10 by Peter BradshawThis is an extraordinary record. But be warned. Once seen, these images cannot be unseen.
Los Angeles Times - 10/10 by Gary GoldsteinNight Will Fall proves a riveting, devastating, heartbreaking and deeply important film, one that you will likely never forget.
Irish Times - 10/10 by Tara BradyIt is difficult to imagine that there'll be a more important film this year. Don't miss it.
Independent (UK) - 10/10 by Geoffrey MacnabThis is a shocking and moving account of how the Bernstein documentary was shot, edited and shelved.
Variety - 9/10 by Alissa SimonNight not only conveys the almost unbelievable atrocities captured by the Russian, American and British camera teams and photographers, but also highlights the dedication of the team determined to document and disseminate this evidence and the changing policies of those in charge of postwar reconstruction.
Time Out - 8/10 by Dave CalhounThe original footage – devastatingly intimate; familiar yet alien – still stops us in our tracks more than six decades later.
Total Film - 8/10 by Ali CatterallThe footage – discoveries made by the Allies in the liberated Nazi camps during 1945 – is graphic, terrible, unforgettable.
CineVue - 8/10 by Daniel GreenA harrowing but necessary insight into what the first Allied troops met as they stumbled upon the nightmare of the Holocaust.
The Playlist - 8/10 by Kevin JagernauthAs Night Will Fall shows, even in the darkest hour, sometimes the greatest heroes are those willing to stare bravely into humanity's worst depths and tell the world what happened.
Daily Telegraph (UK) - 8/10 by Anna SmithNight Will Fall isn’t simply a film about the war, it documents the power of emerging technologies to reveal and publicise war crimes - something that also feels acutely relevant today.
