Auschwitz used in Holocaust movie set?

I was watching 'Imaginary Witness: Hollywood and the Holocaust' and they showed scenes of this film where Auschwitz was actually used in the movie set. They filmed a lot of it there and they reconstructed the crematorium and the train tracks so trains could go back in. What movie was that?

Update:

In response to History Buff it may have been a movie that dealt with the liberation of Auschwitz. But I am still unsure.
