TORN
May 16
Rabbi Leigh Lerner will animate the evening. Can one be a Catholic priest and an observant Jew at the same time? 12 years after he was ordained as a Polish Catholic priest, Romuald Waszkinel discovered that he was born to Jewish parents, and that his name was Jacob Weksler. Torn follows his amazing journey from conducting mass in a church in Poland to life as an observant Jew on a religious kibbutz in Israel. Romuald is torn between two identities, between being Romuald Waszkinel and Jacob Weksler. He is unable to renounce either, and is therefore rejected by both religions and the State of Israel. He is required to choose. Note: This film will begin at 7:30 p.m.

FLUCHKES
June 13 - (8 p.m. on June 13)
Fluchkes (Yiddish for flabby arms) follows the creative process of the dance performance, "Gila". A group of colorful and energetic 72 to 82 year old women bravely confront the hardships and demands of the art of dance. At the same time, these honest and candid women openly share their personal experiences and feelings on aging. Each one of them presents a unique perspective on the aging process. The film followed the group through a year of rehearsals, moments of hardship, failure and great success. Finally, in front of an approving audience, a truly professionally artistic performance is born.
