Description
As the last Holocaust survivors fade from our world, their stories have never felt more urgent to hear.
Ten years ago, Sophie 〞 in France and across Europe 〞 and Leslie 〞 in the United States and around the world 〞 set out to create The Last Ones, a documentary series born from a simple idea: to visit survivors in their own homes, in familiar surroundings, and let them speak freely 〞 over a slice of cheesecake or a piece of lekach 〞 about their childhood, the war, the arrest, the deportation, and survival in the camps.
But also about what came after: the disbelief and hostility that often awaited them, the painful return to life, the question of love, of children, of sleepless nights, of memory and transmission 〞 and of the haunting failure of ※Never Again.§
In this powerful collection of voices, twenty five of the very last survivors of Auschwitz-Birkenau come together to form a portrait not of life after Auschwitz, but of life with Auschwitz 〞 as they themselves say.
