In 1973, Claude Lanzmann took on a project that would change his life forever: SHOAH, a film about the Holocaust told from the perspective of Jewish people. The film would end up taking 12 years to make and would push Lanzmann to the limits of his endurance. Plagued with financial difficulties, death threats, a severe beating at the hands of former Nazis and intense pressure from all sides, the project nearly drove him to suicide. But when Lanzmann finally released SHOAH in 1985, this masterpiece became the most important film ever made about the Holocaust.
