And Everyone Had a Name

1974 • Directed by

Gerhard Jentsch

This documentary about the Buchenwald concentration camp features interviews with survivors who describe their memories and experiences. The antifascist resistance movement within the camp played an important role in East German memorialization of this site; the interviews were edited to be consistant with the official version of the camp's history. Commissioned by the National Buchenwald Remembrance and Memorial Center.
