This powerful documentary explores the life and legacy of Raphael Lemkin, the man who coined the term "genocide." Drawing inspiration from Samantha Power's acclaimed book, the film follows four interwoven stories that illuminate Lemkin's journey and the development of international law. It traces his work from the Nuremberg trials to the establishment of the International Criminal Court in The Hague, examining the historical context of indifference and the rise of activism surrounding human rights.
