Paula Biren, Ruth Elias, Ada Lichtman, Hanna Marton: Four Jewish women, witnesses and survivors of the most insane and pitiless barbarism, and who, for that reason alone, but for many others also, deserve to be inscribed forever into the memory of humankind. What they have in common, beside the specific horrors to which each of them were subjected, is a searingly sharp, almost-physical intelligence, which rejects all pretence or faulty reasoning. In a word, idealism.
Filmed by Claude Lanzmann during the preparation of what would become Shoah, each of these four extraordinary women deserved a film in their own right, to fully illustrate their exceptional fibre, and to reveal through their gripping accounts four little-known chapters of the extermination.
Audio: English (E01, E03), German (E02), Hebrew (E04)
Claude Lanzmann's lifelong work receives its final outing by bearing witness to four Jewish women who survived the Holocaust. These are the last extracts that Lanzmann edited from the 360 hours of Shoah interviews he conducted from the late 1970's to the early 1980's. The film was released the day before he died at the age of 92 in 2018. Lanzmann's documentaries taken from his extensive resource of interviews are in my view the best eye witness Holocaust testimony in existence.
