'Night Will Fall' takes a behind-the-scenes
look at the making of another documentary,
'German Concentration Camps: Factual
Survey,' which documented the British
soldiers' arrival at the German Death Camp
of Bergen-Belsen.
The male and female SS Officers stationed
there had already surrendered. Along with a
similarly co-ed Hungarian military unit on-site,
they were made dig mass graves and to bury
an estimated 30,000 emasciated corpses,
strewn about the camp.
The British soldiers reported that the starving
prisoners continued to die, as they arrived
and that the scene of industrialized death and of
mass crematoria were unspeakably dehumanizing,
in a way that no field of battle could ever be.
The British Ministry of Information had hired
some of the greatest living filmmakers to
document the horrors of the newly-liberated
Nazi concentration camps. Their mission was to
capture images of what had happened, so that
nobody could ever deny that they did.
However, the film was shot and edited -
then shelved, for 70 years.
Branko Lustig, a co-producer of the award-winning
'Schindler's List,' who appeared in 'Night Will Fall,'
claimed that the British government had shelved
and suppressed their own documentary, fearing
that it would further aggravate the militant Zionists,
who'd been making trouble for the British, in the
territory they then administrated called Mandatory
Palestine, now known as the State of Israel.
uncertainty about Lustig's theory but said, "He may
well have a point."
