MK2 Films Acquires Worldwide Rights to Claude Lanzmann’s Films, Including ‘Shoah’ (EXCLUSIVE)


MK2 Films has acquired worldwide rights to Claude Lanzmann's films, including his landmark documentary about the Holocaust 'Shoah.'

With a duration of nine and a half hours, it is the result of 12 years of research, giving voice to the protagonists of the concentration camps — survivors, perpetrators and bystanders. I wish to amplify the action undertaken by the Claude and Felix Lanzmann Association for the inscription of ‘Shoah’ in UNESCO’s Memory of the World. I have chosen Nathanaël Karmitz as the partner who meets the current and future challenges posed by negationism and anti-Semitism, to which only a masterful work of art can respond.”
