For five years, director/writer/actor Tim Blake Nelson prepared himself and others to make this searing Holocaust drama, which drew acclaim and ire from critics and viewers throughout the country. First realized as a play, then a screenplay, Nelson's story is based on historical events, centering on Auschwitz's twelfth Sonderkommando squad, Jewish prisoners assigned work in the crematoria, and their struggle to organize the only armed revolt in October of 1944. Released by Lion's Gate Films in 2002, the movie stars David Arquette, Daniel Benzali, Steve Buscemi, David Chandler, Allan Corduner, Harvey Keitel, Natasha Lyonne, and Mira Sorvino.
