Ten years after the liberation of the Nazi concentration camps, filmmaker Alain Resnais documented the abandoned grounds of Auschwitz. One of the first cinematic reflections on the horrors of the Holocaust, Night and Fog (Nuit et Brouillard) contrasts the stillness of the abandoned camps' quiet, empty buildings with haunting wartime footage. With Night and Fog, Resnais investigates the cyclical nature of man's violence toward man and presents the unsettling suggestion that such horrors could come again. (official distributor synopsis)

A documentary that simply says: look at what we did, learn from it, and never do it again. The footage shown here is terrifying on its own, but in contrast with the colorful scenes filmed for the documentary and in line with the commentary, it creates a truly powerful experience that reminds us of the monstrosities we are capable of.
