Genocide plot

Schwartzman's 1981 documentary "Genocide", made for the Simon Wiesenthal center, is one of the components of the proverbial shield that must protect people from a repetition of history. Based on historical images and the stories of victims, this documentary portrays the origin, implementation and end of Hitler's endlosüng, the final solution to the Jewish question. The film is introduced and concluded by Simon Wiesenthal, while the historical images are explained by American actor, director and screenwriter Orson Welles. The eyewitness accounts of victims are narrated with great emotion by the American actress Elizabeth Taylor.
