- Synopsis
- Using an interview granted to me by Yehuda Lerner in Jerusalem in 1979 during the filming of SHOAH, I have now made SOBIBOR, OCTOBER 14, 1943, 4 PM, the place, month, day, year and hour of the only successful uprising in a Nazi exter- mination camp. In today’s landscapes and settings that are immu- tably those of the past, the non-violent David who dealt the first lethal blow becomes the herald of a mythological film and the master of a suspense that heightens until the final image, when human order and the reign of freedom re-establish their rights.
