 \nDirected by Claude Lanzmann\, Appearing in Person\n\nFrance 2010\, digit
 al video\, color\, 49 min. In English\n\nClaude Lanzmann's place in film h
 istory is assured by his monumental documentary Shoah (1985) about the Naz
 i genocide of Europe's Jews. That film's production spread over twelve yea
 rs\, during which time Lanzmann amassed what amounted to an archive of int
 erviews with survivors\, former Nazis and other witnesses. For his latest 
 film\, Lanzmann has made available much more of the interview that is one 
 of the most surprising parts of Shoah: the testimony of Jan Karski. A memb
 er of the Polish resistance\, Karski was smuggled into the Warsaw ghetto t
 o witness conditions there and then traveled to Washington DC to report wh
 at he had seen directly to President Roosevelt in 1943. The Karski Report 
 (2010) returns to Lanzmann's 1978 interview with Karski\, in which Karski 
 recounts both what he witnessed as well as what he reported. Karski is cle
 arly still haunted both by what he saw and by his inability to prevent the
  Shoah from continuing. The Karski Report continues Lanzmann's exploration
  of the use of cinema as both a historical methodology and a philosophical
  reflection on what it means to be a witness.\n\nStart time: 7pm
