Screening Auschwitz is the first and definitive discussion of the classic Polish Holocaust film The Last Stage (Ostatni etap). Directed by Auschwitz survivor Wanda Jakubowska, The Last Stage was the first film of its kind. Marek Haltof has incorporated a wealth of new sources to trace the creation of this unique film and its wide influence on later films about the Holocaust and popular images of the Shoah.
