Le monde entier sait que l'Holocauste s'est produit. Maintenant, elle doit le prouver.
Deborah Lipstadt, historienne et auteure reconnue, défend farouchement la mémoire de l’Holocauste. Elle se voit confrontée à un universitaire extrémiste, avocat de thèses controversées sur le régime nazi, David Irving, qui la met au défi de prouver l’existence de la Shoah. Sûr de son fait, Irving assigne en justice Lipstadt, qui se retrouve dans la situation aberrante de devoir prouver l’existence des chambres à gaz. Comment, en restant dans les limites du droit, faire face à un négationniste prêt à toutes les bassesses pour obtenir gain de cause, et l’empêcher de profiter de cette tribune pour propager ses théories nauséabondes ?

An excellent film about a vitally important subject which is especially relevant in this time of "post-truth" and "fake news".
The film was as well made as it was important in these days of Donald Trump and Marine Le Pen. While I think the movie ironically took some liberties with the true history, the message came through loud and clear, and without beating anyone over the head.
A good idea turn into a mediocre legal drama aware of pleasing a transatlantic audience. A case of subject matter dominating. Rachel has a terrible accent. Spall gives a good performance in what feels like a character assasination.
Fantastic, sobering, well crafted and executed account of a true event. The acting was fantastic, the issues were riveting and the story needed to be told. In a world that believes that truth is relative, it is important to be reminded that such a position is harmful to society and dangerous to the future of mankind. If we are willing to rewrite history to distort it for our own purposes we will be forced to relive our mistakes. Everyone should see this movie. I give it a 9.5 (superb and valuable) out of 10.
Really good movie that lives from the acting and a serious story line. A rarity these days.
