Elie Wiesel’s life journey, from his family’s deportation to his legacy as a writer and human rights advocate, is narrated in his own eloquent voice. With unique access to personal archives, original interviews and employing hand-painted animation, the film stands as a testament to an extraordinary man who helped shape our collective memory of the darkest chapter of the twentieth century. This documentary is an intimate encounter with Wiesel’s humanity and determination to inspire action against injustice.
