Jewish LIFE Film Series: "The World Is Funny"
Saturday, June 1, 7:00 p.m.
Aspiring writer Zafi has trouble composing endings to her stories. She uses her housecleaning jobs to find interesting tales. Among the accounts she collects and ties together is the story of estranged siblings.
This Israel's box-office hit of 2012 and nominated for a 15 Israeli academy awards, is a complex allegory on Israeli society, far away from news headlines. A passionate comic tragedy, this is a film about bereavement, longing and the power of family. See the
flyer.
Doors open at 6:45 p.m. Discussion after the film led by Simona Rivkin, Cultural Arts chair. RSVP to
Simona.

The program is free and open to the entire community. Refreshments will be served. Though pre-registration is requested, walk-ins are welcome. Please call the JCC at 908-443-9018 to register.
