On Oct. 19, 1965, shortly after the Frankfurt Auschwitz Trial — the first trial of Germans by Germans for the crimes of the Holocaust — playwright Peter Weiss premiered The Investigation. The play drew on the verbatim testimony of SS officers, Nazi functionaries and camp survivors, to reconstruct the genocidal horror in harrowing, undeniable detail.
Eschewing depictions of the camp itself, The Investigation relies on the words of the perpetrators and their victims to lay bare the greatest crime of the 20th century.
On Jan. 27, 2025, 80 years after the liberation of Auschwitz by the Red Army, the first film adaptation of The Investigation will premiere in Israel. R.P. Kahl’s faithful, four-hour-long re-creation will screen at the Cinematheque Tel Aviv on Monday and at the Cinematheque Jerusalem on Tuesday, Jan. 28.

“Showing the film in Israel, particularly in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem, is deeply meaningful to us,” says The Investigation producer Alexander van Dülmen.
