Book Review of Kristi M. Wilson and Tomás F. Crowder-Taraborrelli (eds.), Film and Genocide. Madison: University of Wisconsin Press, 2012.
Victim testimony as a source for the study of genocide and mass violence has been the subject of longstanding debate in the social sciences and humanities, especially among historians. This conference aims to deepen the discussion by inviting participants to present on three areas of focus: 1. video testimonies collected from the late 1970s up to the present-day 2. video testimonies of victims as well as eyewitnesses 3. video testimonies documenting the Holocaust and other mass atrocities

The truth of reenactments: reliving, reconstructing, and contesting history in documentaries on genocide2023 •
This article seeks to renegotiate the relationship between reenactment, truth, history, and the archive in documentaries on genocide. It moves away from the common binaries surrounding the supposed creativity and fictionality of reenactments as opposed to the evidentiary and static archive, and instead reads reenactments as facilitating access to truth. Through four case studies of Claude Lanzmann's Shoah (1985), Laurence Rees's Auschwitz: The Nazis and the "Final Solution" (2005), Rithy Panh's The Missing Picture (2013), and Joshua Oppenheimer's The Act of Killing (2012), it contends that reenactments in documentaries on genocide problematize the associations of an image's supposed indexical link to a past event with truth. Instead, reenactments confront us with the constructed nature of historical narrative and enable us to see affective, factual, and ethical truths of the past unavailable through the archive.

Introductory Reflections on Perpetrators of Crimes Against Humanity and their Representation in Documentary Film2020 •
2023 •
We — a documentary filmmaker and a cultural psychologist — share some of the thoughts that we have been concerned with since we started thinking together about some issues that are as much on the minds of the filmmaker as they are on the minds of the scientist. On the one hand, this is our way of encouraging scientific research on the harmful aspects of life to open up to alternative perspectives, methods of exploration, data collection, and documentation that are often considered vague and blurry or even unscientific; this is due to established, almost scholastic demarcations that make it difficult to gain broader insights into complex and interrelated phenomena such as violence, aggression, repression, malice, fear, despair, etc. In addition, we would like to make sensitive to the fact that those phenomena that usually interest conventional research on violence the most — for example wars, genocides, mass killings, rampages, and rapes — have their breeding grounds which are still waiting to be explored and conceptualised more thoroughly. An exchange between social scientists and documentary filmmakers serves as just one of many examples of how a more thorough exploration of our fragile existence could benefit from interdisciplinary and interprofessional cooperation and resulting insights.
