Trailer for the Academy Award®-winning Documentary Feature, The Last Days presented by Steven Spielberg and USC Shoah Foundation.

The film traces the compelling experiences of five Hungarian Holocaust survivors who fell victim to Adolf Hitler’s brutal war against the Jews during the final days of World War II.

The film shares the remarkable stories of five people ­– a grandmother, a teacher, a businessman, an artist, and a U.S. congressman – as they return from the United States to their hometowns and to the ghettos and concentration camps that once imprisoned them.

Through the eyes of the survivors and other witnesses, including a former Nazi doctor at Auschwitz, The Last Days recounts one of the most brutal chapters of human history. But above all, The Last Days is a potent depiction of personal strength and courage, and a testament to the power of the human spirit.

The Last Days was remastered in 2021 from the original 35MM film negative under the supervision of the original filmmaking team.

Directed by James Moll
Produced by June Beallor and Ken Lipper
