La case du siècle Vie et destin du Livre noir, la destruction des Juifs d'URSS (2020) offers a gripping and poignant account of the Holocaust in Soviet territories during World War II. The documentary explores the collaboration of renowned writers Ilya Ehrenburg and Vasily Grossman as they documented the tragic fate of the Jews under Nazi occupation.

Through archival footage and interviews with scholars, the film sheds light on the efforts of these writers to compile the Livre noir (Black Book) - a comprehensive record of the atrocities committed against the Jewish population in the USSR. The documentary delves into the challenges they faced in ensuring the truth was documented and remembered, despite the pervasive denial and suppression of this history.

La case du siècle is a powerful testament to the resilience and courage of those who sought to preserve the memory of the Holocaust, even amidst the chaos and horror of war. This film serves as a reminder of the importance of bearing witness to history and honoring the victims of genocide.
