Elie Wiesel: Soul On Fire (HKJFF2025)

Elie Wiesel: Soul on Fire is a portrait of one of the most important moral voices of the 20th century. Told largely through Wiesel’s own words and eloquent voice, the documentary traces his journey from Holocaust survivor to Nobel Peace Prize-winning writer, teacher, and global conscience. With rare access to personal archives, original interviews, and hand-painted animation, the filmmaker reveals the private depths of a man known to the world as a witness to genocide and champion of human rights. This film delves beyond the public figure to reveal the man behind the words.
