Filmed play. Based on the memoirs "Se questo è un uomo" (If This Is a Man), by Primo Levi (1st ed. 1947, revised 1958).
A monologue. The stage is bare but for a chair and a set of walls. The narration of Levi's recollection of Auschwitz is very vivid and intelligent (both as text and as performance) and makes for a moving viewing experience. On the other hand, it is hard not to imagine how interesting it would be to see a real movie of this, or even a multi-actor play.
