Memorandum (film)

Memorandum is a one-hour 1965 documentary co-directed by Donald Brittain and John Spotton, and produced by John Kemeny for the National Film Board of Canada. It follows Bernard Laufer, a Jewish Holocaust survivor, on an emotional pilgrimage back to the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp. Considered by many critics to be Brittain's finest work, the film's title refers to Hitler's memorandum about the "final solution."

A detailed analysis of the film's structure is available in Ken Dancyger's The Technique of Film and Video Editing: History, Theory and Practice.
