Night and Fog / Nuit et brouillard Friday, 6 May 2011 5.30 p.m. & 7.30 p.m. 1955-B&W-32 min Directed by: Alain Resnais ‘Night and Fog’ is the masterpiece documentary by Resnais about the Second World War and the Nazi genocidal project: the first film about the concentration camps to reach a wide audience both within and outside France; a film that influenced all subsequent imagery including Steven Spielberg’s ‘Schindler’s List’. Artfully constructed and profoundly moving, the film traces the ruins of the present against the horrors of the past. The film depicts the bittersweet liberation of Europe, the horrific discovery of the camps, and the questioning of who bears the responsibility for them.
