Description
The Karski Report is a 48 minute presentation of discarded material from Lanzmann's 1978 interview with the Polish envoy, extracts from which are among the best known of the encounters in Shoah. From 1942 he reported to the Polish, British and US governments on the situation in Poland including the destruction of the Warsaw Ghetto and the genocide of Poland's Jewish population. The Last of the Unjust consists of three-and-a-half hours edited down from a ten hour encounter with Benjamin Murmelstein from 1975, the very first interview undertaken by Lanzmann
