Based on the acclaimed book by Dr. Deborah Lipstadt, the film Denial recounts Lipstadt’s legal battle for historical truth against David Irving, who accused her of libel when she declared him a Holocaust denier. In the English legal system, the burden of proof in libel cases is on the defendant. Therefore, Lipstadt and her legal team had the task of proving the essential truth that the Holocaust occurred. We will watch clips from Denial and discuss the legal issues.
