The liberation of Auschwitz is documented firsthand in this remarkable historical footage shot by Soviet cameraman Captain Alexander Vorontsov and later used as evidence by the prosecution at the Nuremburg War Crime Trials. As the footage tells the tale of the six-thousand prisoners left to perish as the Russian Army descended upon the notorious concentration camp, Vorontsov offers a firsthand account of the harrowing effect that witnessing the horrifying scene had on himself and his fellow Russian liberators. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

    This film was very slow and some of the narration was hard to understand. A lot of the footage was just buildings or not even explained. Even though it was only 50 minutes, it felt much longer.

    This is a short film and still I could not stand to watch it another minute. I gave up around 30 minutes and sent it back. Quite possibly one of the worst documentaries on the holocaust ever. Try Shadow and Fog (?). Its a French film from 1964 I belive. Much, much better

    Slightly underachieving. This documentary had all the makings and potential to be a monster, but it fell short.
