Details:
Join us at The HC on Thursday, July 23, for a screening of "Among Neighbors" in honor of Tisha B’Av.
Combining magical realism and evocative hand-drawn animation with revelatory interviews and verité footage, Among Neighbors examines the story of a small, rural town where Jews and Polish Catholics lived side by side for centuries before World War II.
The film brings the Polish response to the Holocaust to life through the last living eyewitnesses, revealing both love and betrayal as it zeroes in on one of the last living Holocaust survivors from the town, and an aging eyewitness who saw Jews murdered there, not by Nazis, but by her own Polish neighbors.
A Q&A with award-winning filmmaker Yoav Potash will follow.
Run time is 100 min. Please note that in observance of Tisha B’Av, there will be no dessert reception following the screening.
Admission is $10.00, or free for members, at 29862.blackbaudhosting.com/29862/Among-Neighbors-Film-Screening?utm_id=97758_v0_s00_e0_tv4_a1demo0jgm2hwu
