Back to all films

As a child, Dr. James Muller discovered photographs his father had taken during the liberation of Buchenwald concentration camp. The images haunted him—and helped shape a life devoted to preventing humanity’s next catastrophe. Decades later, Muller helped unite American and Soviet physicians across the Iron Curtain, building a movement that challenged the nuclear arms race, reached millions on both sides of the Cold War, and won the Nobel Peace Prize. Now, as nuclear threats intensify and artificial intelligence introduces new dangers, the doctors are mobilizing again.

Told entirely within a single room where past, present, and future coexist, FINAL WARNING brings eight decades of history to life through archival footage, imaginative recreations, and unexpected encounters across time. The past doesn’t simply appear on a screen—it enters the room. Younger and older versions of the same people cross paths, as moments of extraordinary courage collide with the choices confronting us today. At once intimate and cinematic, the film explores how a group of physicians helped change the course of history—and what their story can teach us about our power to change it again.
