Majdanek - Cemetery of Europe
Filmed immediately after the Red Army liberated the Majdanek concentration camp, this documentary is regarded as the first cinematic record of Nazi genocide. Shot on July 24–25, 1944, it presents stark evidence of atrocities alongside testimony from surviving prisoners representing many European nations, making it one of the earliest films to confront the scale of the Holocaust.
