Actress and co-writer of Three Sisters on Hope Street, Tracy Ann Oberman, BAFTA award-winning John Hurt, star of countless films including Alien and Shooting Dogs, and Dr Joanna Newman, co-author of Holocaust and the Moving Image, join host and Observer film critic Jason Solomons to look at the shifting portrayal of the Holocaust in film.
Over the evening, we’ll be considering the change in representation from 80s award-winning films Europa Europa and Au Revoir Les Enfants, through Schindler’s List to 2007’s European films Black Book and The Counterfeiters and recent portrayals of other genocides, including Shooting Dogs and Hotel Rwanda.
