The Sedona International Film Festival is proud to present the Northern Arizona premiere of “The Last Twins” showing Oct. 10-16 at the Alice Gill-Sheldon Theatre.

One man. One hope. One choice.

“The Last Twins” is the never-before-told story of an unsung hero of the Holocaust, Erno “Zvi” Spiegel, who risked everything to save dozens of young twins from almost certain death at Auschwitz.

Under the shadow of Dr. Josef Mengele’s horrific experiments, Spiegel used his courage, compassion, and ingenuity to shield the most vulnerable — the sets of twins targeted for brutal medical experimentation. Mengele put Spiegel in charge of the young boys, but Spiegel used his position to protect and comfort the children, all of whom had been torn from their families and subjected to inhumane tests under the constant threat of extermination.

Through first-hand testimony and exclusive archival material, “The Last Twins” brings to life the voices of those who survived because of Spiegel’s defiance. It is a testament to resilience, sacrifice, and the power of one person to make a difference, even in humanity’s darkest hour.

The documentary is directed and produced by Emmy Award-winning directors Perri Peltz and Matthew O’Neill and is narrated by Tony Award-winning actor Liev Schreiber.

“The Last Twins” will be shown at the Alice Gill-Sheldon Theatre Oct. 10-16. Showtimes will be Friday, Saturday and Monday, Oct. 10, 11 and 13 at 3:30 p.m.; Sunday, Oct. 12 at 12:30 p.m.; and Wednesday and Thursday, Oct. 15 and 16 at 6:30 p.m.
