What to watch this week: 'Holofiction' shines, Disney's 'Furious' falls short

"Holofiction," a new documentary by Michal Kosakowski, streams on Hot 8, Hot VOD, and Next TV starting August 2. The film uniquely examines fictional depictions of the Holocaust by compiling thousands of clips from various movies and TV shows, including "Schindler's List" and "Son of Saul," to tell a chronological story without dialogue. It aims to critically assess how cinema has portrayed the Holocaust, a subject that director Claude Lanzmann once called a "transgression" to depict through fiction. The review notes that while the film is hypnotic and moving, it also highlights the potential inadequacy of fiction to convey the true suffering of the Holocaust.
