About Long Is the Road
The first feature film to represent the Holocaust from a Jewish perspective. Shot on location at Landsberg, the largest DP camp in U.S.-occupied Germany, and mixing neorealist and expressionist styles, the film follows a Polish Jew and his family from pre-war Warsaw through Auschwitz and the DP camps.
Directed by Herbert B. Fredersdorf, Marek Goldstein, Long Is the Road leans on a strong ensemble — Israel Beker, Bettina Moissi, Berta Litwina — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about history titles of 1948.
