| Summary: | Verzio FF submission
"The Portraitist" tells the story of photographer Wilhelm Brasse. Prior to World War II, photography was Brasse's life passion. However, after being imprisoned in Auschwitz and forced to take photos of not only prisoners and SS officers, but also of victims of medical experiments, his creative passion was permanently altered. When the war ended, Wilhelm Brasse managed to rescue the camp's archives, but never took a photo again. |
