Eighty years after his liberation from Buchenwald, we strive to uncover the man behind Elie Wiesel’s haunting and universally read memoir, Night. Through his own eloquent words and reflections, the film delves into the known and unknown dimensions of Wiesel — his passions, inner struggles, and enduring legacy as one of the most prominent witnesses of Holocaust trauma. Drawing on unprecedented access to personal archives, intimate interviews and striking hand-painted animation, the film paints a vivid portrait of Wiesel as survivor, storyteller, teacher and global advocate. By blending memory, history and artistry, it invites viewers to experience the complexities of a man whose life bore witness to unimaginable horror yet radiated profound courage, empathy and a lifelong quest for justice.
