This Soviet-made film was screened on February 19, 1946 on the 62nd day of the Nuremberg Trial and submitted as evidence relevant to the indictment for "crimes against humanity." The one-hour film with voiceover commentary shows visual evidence of the extermination camps of Auschwitz and Majdanek and appeals to spectators' emotions by emphasizing individual victims. The central argument of the film is that the Germans were the executioners of peaceful Soviet citizens. At the time, it made a very strong impression on both the accused and press. The film is a re-edited compilation of footage collected by the Soviet film team over four years (primarily used for propagandistic ends in wartime Soviet newsreels and documentaries). It was prepared in emergency by the Soviet prosecution team and minister of cinema following the projection of Nazi Concentration Camps presented by the Americans on November 29, 1945.

Made by the highly influential Russian cameraman Roman Karmen, this documentary vividly features Albanian life immediately after the communists came to power in 1944. The film is especially memorable since it’s missing much of the heavy socialist realism that marked Albanian doc making. Shortly after he completed the film, Karmen set off for Berlin to shoot the Soviet victory over Nazi Germany.

Movie filmed directly after the liberation of the concentration camp at Majdanek.

Directed by Roman Karmen and Mikhail Slutsky.

Фильм повествует о гражданской войне в Испании (1936 – 1939 гг.) и представляет собой переработанный материал кинохроники «К событиям в Испании», которая регулярно показывалась в кинотеатрах Советского Союза 30-х годов. Авторами съёмок были кинооператоры Роман Кармен и Борис Макасеев. Также были использованы кадры хроники франкистов. Режиссёрская работа Эсфирь Шуб сводилась к монтажу. Зажигательный текст принадлежит перу Всеволода Вишневского. Фильм вышел на экраны уже после того, как Гражданская война завершилась. Если Эсфирь Шуб была признанным классиком документального кино, то для Романа Кармена «Испания» стала одним из первых опытов работы. Впоследствии Роман Кармен станет всемирно известным документалистом и кинооператором.
