Their stories and those of dozens of others of survivors, bystanders, and perpetrators of the Holocaust unfold, blend, and resolve to create an absolutely riveting nine-and-a-half hour film, Shoah...

Heir to the life of the spirit is the ascetic, The Pale One, Moyshe (Moses) Wasservogel, orphaned long ago in a Carpathian pogrom, named by his saviors after "that other who was picked up out of the stream of life." At nine-and-a-half Moyshe knew the Talmud and the Torah, at 15 he was drafted into the Tsar's Army...
