The Last Visa (2017)

Other name: 最后一张签证

Description:

The Last Visa recounts the incredible true story of Chinese diplomat Ho Feng Shan, a forgotten hero of World War II. Set in Austria during a period of escalating Nazi persecution, the film centers on Ho Feng Shan's courageous actions as thousands of Jewish people desperately sought a means to escape. Defying explicit orders from his superiors, this principled diplomat made the extraordinary decision to issue countless visas, providing the vital documents needed for Jews to flee Austria and find refuge. His selfless deeds, which saved thousands of lives from certain peril, remained largely unknown for decades after the war. It was only following his death that his immense bravery came to light, leading to his posthumous recognition and honor in 2001. This powerful historical drama is a compelling coproduction by China's Omnijoi Media Corporation and the Czech Republic's Twin Star Film.
