Over twelve years, Lanzmann gathered 230 hours of interviews with survivors, witnesses, and perpetrators, which he condensed into a nine-and-a-half-hour film. The unused footage was scattered and inaccessible for years before it was restored and digitized by the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum. In An Archive of the Catastrophe, Jennifer Cazenave presents the first comprehensive study of this collection. She argues that the outtakes pose a major challenge to the representational and theoretical paradigms produced by the documentary, while offering new meanings of Shoah and of Holocaust testimony writ large. They lend new insight into issues raised by the film, including questions of resistance, rescue, refugees, and above all gender--interviews with women make up a mere ten minutes of the finished documentary. As a rare instance of outtakes preserved during the predigital era of cinema, the unused footage of Shoah challenges us to establish a new critical framework for understanding how documentaries are constructed and reshapes the way we view this key Holocaust film"-- |cProvided by publisher. 504 Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 Introduction: the making of the Shoah archive -- The formation of a paradigm -- Recasting 1961: Shoah and the Eichmann trial -- Off-frame: trauma and the feminine -- The question of rescue and refugees -- Conclusion: the deep time of testimony. 530 Electronic version(s) |bavailable internally at USHMM. 591 Record updated by Marcive processing 21 June 2024 630 00 Shoah (Motion picture) 650 0 Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945), in motion pictures. 630 07 Shoah (Motion picture) |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01369922 650 7 Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) in motion pictures. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00958927 700 1 Lanzmann, Claude. 776 08 |iElectronic version:Cazenave, Jennifer. |tArchive of the catastrophe. |dAlbany : State University of New York Press, [2019] |z9781438474786 |w(OCoLC)1103605982 830 0 SUNY series in contemporary Jewish literature and culture. 856 41 |3Electronic version(s) available. |zHosted by ProQuest |uhttps://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/ushmm/detail.action?docID=5784223 852 0 |bstacks |hPN1997.S4755 |iC39 2019 852 |bebook
