Atlanta Jewish Film Festival – The Last Twins

An untold chapter of Holocaust history comes to light through the horrendous experiences of young twins targeted for Josef Mengele’s brutal medical experiments at Auschwitz. Erno “Zvi” Spiegel, a young Jewish prisoner assigned to the twins’ barracks, used rare moments of agency to shield, teach, and comfort the boys in his care, a wobbly circle of safety in the face of constant dehumanization. Through first-hand testimony from surviving twins and intimate reflections from Spiegel’s daughter Judith Richter, a vivid picture of quiet resistance and moral courage emerges. Exclusive archival material and deeply moving reunions decades later transform this harrowing history, narrated by Liev Schreiber, into a profoundly affecting, unexpectedly uplifting testament to humanity reclaimed.
