懷念老朋友：克勞朗治曼 Our Tribute to Claude Lanzmann

HKIFF的老朋友、法國著名導演克勞朗治曼今天去世，享年92歲。其經典代表作《#大浩劫》(1985)曾於第37屆電影節放映，九小時片長紀錄了納粹集中營種族滅絕的殘酷真相，獲《視與聽》雜誌中選為史上最偉大紀錄片第二位，他亦於2013年獲柏林影展頒予終身成就獎。朗治曼多部作品曾於HKIFF放映，最後作品《#燃燒彈》亦見於今年電影節。HKIFF 謹此向這位偉大電影工作者致敬。

A good friend of HKIFF, French filmmaker #ClaudeLanzmann passed away today at the age of 92. His landmark Holocaust documentary #SHOAH (1985, screened in HKIFF37), which runs more than nine hours long, is highly acclaimed and selected by critics around the world in Sight and Sound magazine as #2 of the Greatest Documentaries of All Time. In 2013, he received the Honorary Golden Bear at the Berlin International Film Festival. Many of his films have been screened in HKIFF, including his latest work #NAPALM at this year’s festival. We at #HKIFF pay our tribute to this great filmmaker.
