The Last Suit (2017)
(El Ultimo Traje | Director: Pablo Solarz | Narrative | Argentina, Spain 2017 | 92 min. | German, Polish, Spanish, Yiddish - w/ subtitles)
RJFF. At 88, Abraham Bursztein is seeing his place in the world rapidly disappear. But Abraham isn’t about to fade away quietly. Instead, he plots a secret, one-way trip to Poland, where he plans to find the friend who saved him from certain death at the end of WWII. As he travels from Argentina to Spain, across Germany and finally to Poland, Abraham encounters an assortment of characters. Comedic and poignant in equal measure, THE LAST SUIT is a multilingual (Spanish, Yiddish, German and Polish) globe-trotting surprise, a late-in-life road movie with planes, trains and heart.
