Sinopsis
(All Movie Guide)
Night and Fog represents the peak of director
Alain Resnais'
activities as a short-subject filmmaker. Framed as a documentary, the film is
an unsettling view of life inside the Nazi concentration camps of World War
II. As he would in his later features (Hiroshima
Mon Amour,
Last Year at Marienbad et. al.) Resnais toys with chronology, with memory
becoming present reality and vice versa at several critical junctures.
Jean Cayrol,
later responsible for the script of Resnais'
Muriel
(1962), wrote the narration for
Night and Fog.
The film was originally released in France as
Nuit et
Brouillard.
