The Last Resort
The Last Resort is a documentary, by Dennis Scholl and Kareem Tabsch, about a vibrant Jewish retirement paradise that flourished in 1970s Miami Beach. Long before Miami Vice and MTV Spring Break, the retiree community grew so big that most of the city’s population was over 70 and Jewish!
The story is told through the beautiful photographs of Andy Sweet and Gary Monroe, who as young artists set out to capture this unique moment.
