Presented as part of a new series at the Maison Française, Cinema: History and Theory
The Nuremberg trials introduced procedural and evidentiary novelties that remain relevant today: the filming of the trials, the presentation of filmed images as evidence, the passage from the description of “atrocities”, inherited from the First World War, to “genocide,” the statute of non-delimitation concerning the crime of genocide and crimes against humanity.
