The Nuremberg trials mark the first time in history that moving images—invested therefore with the indisputable power of truth—play a major role as judicial evidence in a courtroom. The Nuremburg trials themselves were meticulously documented by a film crew under the supervision of John Ford. With a deft edit of this spectacular black and white footage and the audio recordings from the trial, Christian Delage reconstructs this singular judgment on the Nazi crimes against peace and humanity. Narrated by the rich voice of Christopher Plummer, the film powerfully and deliberately situates spectators in the heart of these landmark proceedings. The layered text explores the role of witnessing, filmmaking, and visual evidence in the public understanding of truth and justice.  SW
