The Forgotten Dead is a documentary that digs deep into the shadows of the porajmos, often overlooked in the larger narrative of the Holocaust. What really strikes you is the stark, raw atmosphere that József Lakatos creates, blending interviews and archival footage to paint a haunting picture. The pacing is deliberate, allowing the weight of the subject to settle in. It’s not just about numbers or statistics, but about real lives and stories that remain untold. The absence of Gypsy witnesses at the Nuremberg Trials is a chilling aspect that makes the film stand out. It’s distressing yet essential viewing for anyone interested in the darker corners of history and the stories that emerge from them.
