“A comic tragedy of suspicion…” Cohen Media has posted their own official US trailer for a film called My Neighbor Adolf, an awkward comedy by filmmaker Leon Prudovsky. This film first premiered back in 2022 and already opened back then (here’s the first trailer from years ago). But somehow it never got a US release all this time and has been sitting for 3 years waiting to finally open in the US. It’s out in December, but only in one theater in NYC. Based on a true story, set in 1960s Colombia (not Argentina). Mr. Polsky is a lonely, grumpy Holocaust survivor who is now living in the remote countryside. He mostly spends his days playing chess & tending to his beloved rose bushes. However, when a mysterious old German man moves in next door he begins to suspect his new neighbor is… Adolf Hitler. Since nobody believes him, he embarks on a detective mission to find the evidence. In order to prove his suspicions, Mr. Polsky will need to be closer to his neighbor than he would like – so close they could almost become friends… Starring David Hayman as Polsky and Udo Kier as his new neighbor, along with Danharry Colorado and Olivia Silhavy. I’ll admit I’m intrigued to find out who he really is (probably not actually Hitler?)… A final trailer after all these years.

Here’s the official US trailer (+ poster) for Leon Prudovsky’s movie My Neighbor Adolf, from YouTube:

You can watch the initial 2022 trailer for Leon Prudovsky’s My Neighbor Adolf right here for the first look.

South America, 1960. A lonely and grumpy Holocaust survivor named Polsky (David Hayman) convinces himself that his German next door neighbor (Udo Kier) is none other than Adolf Hitler. Not being taken seriously, he starts an independent investigation to prove his claim, but when the evidence still appears to be inconclusive, Polsky is forced to engage in a relationship with the enemy in order to obtain irrefutable proof. My Neighbor Adolf is directed by the Russian-Israeli filmmaker Leon Prudovsky (aka Leonid), director of the film Five Hours from Paris previously, plus a few shorts and the series “Semeynyy Albom”. The screenplay is written by Dmitry Malinsky and Leon Prudovsky. This originally premiered at the 2022 Locarno Film Festival a few years ago. The film was already released in countries around the world back in 2022. Cohen Media Group will finally debut Prudovsky’s My Neighbor Adolf in select US theaters starting on December 19th, 2025 later this year. For more details, visit their official site.
