New DVD: A Film Unfinished
We recently added A Film Unfinished to the DBRL collection. The film has received some positive reviews and won the World Cinema Documentary Editing Award at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival. Here’s a synopsis from our catalog:
At the end of WWII, 60 minutes of raw film in an East German archive was discovered. Shot by the Nazis in Warsaw in May of 1942, the film became a resource for historians seeking an authentic record of the Warsaw Ghetto. The later discovery of a long-missing reel, including multiple takes and cameramen staging scenes, complicated earlier readings of the footage. Presented is the raw footage in its entirety, falsely showing the ‘good life’ of Jewish urbanites. Included is an interview, and more.
