Using footage compIetely unparalIeled, A Film Unfinished provides new insight into the Nazi propaganda machine, further exposing an agenda already known to be deceitful beyond our greatest beIiefs.
At the end of WWll, 60 minutes of raw film, having sat undisturbed in an East German archive, was discovered. Shot by the Nazis in Warsaw in May 1942 and Iabeled simpIy "Ghetto," this footage quickIy became a resource for historians seeking an authentic record of the Warsaw Ghetto. However, the later discovery of a Iong-missing reel, including muItipIe takes and cameramen staging scenes, compIicated earIier readings of the footage. A FiIm Unfinished presents the raw footage in its entirety, carefuIly noting fictionaIized sequences (including a staged dinner party) falsely showing "the good life" enjoyed by Jewish urbanites, and probing deep into the making of the now-infamous Nazi propaganda film.
A fiIm of enormous import, A Film Unfinished documents some of the worst horrors of our time and exposes the efforts of its perpetrators to propel their agenda and cast it in a favorabIe light. |
