At the Suicide of the Last Jew in the World in the Last Cinema in the World

In an unspecified future, a man prepares to kill himself in a cinema toilet. Two unseen radio commentators say he is the last Jew in the world, and that this is the last cinema, slated for destruction. They are not sorry to see it go.

Directed by David Cronenberg, At the Suicide of the Last Jew in the World in the Last Cinema in the World leans on a strong ensemble — David Cronenberg, Jesse Collins, Gina Clayton — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2007.
