2017 French film

Shoah: Four Sisters is a 2017 French documentary film that premiered at the 2017 New York Film Festival and first aired on TV as a four-part series on January 23, 2018. It is both Claude Lanzmann’s final film and a continuation of Shoah and chronicles the lives of four women who escaped the concentration camps and tried to find a life after the Holocaust. Lanzman traveled around four Eastern European countries and interviewed and got accounts from four separate women. The four-and-a-half hour cut of the film (half of Shoah’s length) debuted in American theaters on November 14, 2018. It was on France’s shortlist to compete in the Best Documentary category.
