Synopsis by Perry Seibert
Claude Lanzmann returns to the subject of World War II and the Holocaust with his documentary The Last of the Unjust, in which he interviews Benjamin Murmelstein, a Jewish man who held a position of responsibility at Theresienstadt, considered by the Nazis to be the ideal death camp. Lanzmann visits key sites referenced in the film, as his subject discusses his complex feelings about what he was forced to endure and do during that period of history.
