## About

At 28, Elie Wiesel wrote a letter revealing his ambition to win the Nobel Prize for Literature — for Night, his memoir written after his liberation from the camps. Decades later, he did win the Nobel — for Peace. In that gap he lived his entire life. Wiesel became the conscience of the free world, wearing his survival like a tuxedo over the prisoner's uniform he could never part with. The filmmaker, whose father was deported on the same train to Auschwitz as Wiesel, sets out on a personal investigation — believing that important figures deserve more than reverence — they deserve the truth.
