The Last Days The Last Days
90 min • USA, 1999
James Moll, Director
June Beallor/Ken Lipper, Producers

Presented by Steven Spielberg And The Shoah Foundation

Nominated for a 1999 Academy Award, The Last Days is the story of five remarkable people whose strength and will to live represent the extraordinary power of the human spirit. From the villages of Carpathia to the cosmopolitan city of Budapest, the Nazis ravaged their Hungarian homeland. Despite all, as new Americans they lived to build new lives out of turbulent childhoods. Told solely by the voices of eyewitnesses, The Last Days interweaves private accounts, pivotal historic footage, and a powerful score by Academy Award-winning composer Hans Zimmer. A monumental film and a stunning legacy from Steven Spielberg’s Shoah Foundation.

Nominated for 1999 Academy Award, Best Feature Documentary
