FADE IN:

EXT. LOS ANGELES - DAY

Nathan Fielder, dressed in his Summit Ice gear, stands outside the headquarters of the Shoah Foundation. He's nervously fidgeting with his jacket as Steven Spielberg approaches.

STEVEN SPIELBERG:

Hey, Nathan. Welcome to the Shoah Foundation.

NATHAN FIELDER:

Thanks, Steven. I'm really excited to be here.

Steven and Nathan enter the building and are greeted by a team of staff members.

STAFF MEMBER:

Mr. Spielberg, we're ready for you in the interview room.

INT. INTERVIEW ROOM - DAY

Nathan and Steven sit across from each other at a table with a microphone set up between them.

STEVEN SPIELBERG:

Nathan, I'm honored to have you here at the Shoah Foundation. Our mission is to record and preserve the testimonies of Holocaust survivors, so that future generations can learn from their experiences.

NATHAN FIELDER:

I'm excited to learn more about the work you're doing here, Steven. I also want to learn more about the impact that Jewish filmmakers have had on the industry.

Steven nods and begins to talk about the history of Jewish filmmakers and their contributions to the film industry.

As they speak, we see footage of famous Jewish filmmakers like Woody Allen, Mel Brooks, and Barbra Streisand.

Suddenly, a survivor walks into the room, and Nathan and Steven stand up to greet her.

SURVIVOR:

Hello, my name is Esther. I'm a Holocaust survivor.

Steven and Nathan listen intently as Esther shares her story of survival.

NATHAN FIELDER:

Thank you so much for sharing your story with us, Esther. It's an honor to meet you.

ESTHER:

Thank you for listening. It's important to me that people remember what happened during the Holocaust so that it never happens again.

The movie continues with Nathan and Steven interviewing more survivors and learning about their experiences.

We see footage of Jewish filmmakers working on set and interviews with filmmakers like Paul Feig, Rachel Bloom, and Noah Baumbach, who share their thoughts on the importance of telling Jewish stories on film.

The film ends with Nathan and Steven standing in front of a memorial to the victims of the Holocaust.

STEVEN SPIELBERG:

We must never forget what happened during the Holocaust. It's up to all of us to ensure that the stories of survivors are never lost.

NATHAN FIELDER:

I couldn't agree more. Thank you, Steven, for allowing me to be a part of this important project.

FADE TO BLACK.

THE END.


Big thanks to Nathan Fielder, Steven Spielberg and ChatGBT
