About this Event

Run Time: 1 hour 19 minutes

Release Year: 2023

The film is a moving portrait of Nathan Hilu, a virtually unknown “outsider artist” who spent 70 years obsessively creating a visual narrative from his memories of being a guard to top Nazi war criminals at the Nuremberg trials. What begins as a peek at a unique witness to history grows into an absorbing study of the function of art as archive and invention. Daring to question an artist’s stories, "Nathan-ism" is a fascinating look at one man’s need to share truths with a world that doesn’t always want to listen. 

Producer Melanie Levy will be in attendance for a Q&A after the film.

Doors open 30 minutes before scheduled screening time.
