with Nili Adler

Wednesday, April 14, Noon

Based on a short story by acclaimed Israeli author, Savyon Liebrecht, Dina Zvi-Riklis’ film tells the story of an intimate bond among women from different worlds: free-spirited secularism and a cloistered ultra-Orthodoxy. Slowly, with many twists and turns, a secret is revealed. Nili Adler will introduce the film and lead a discussion. (Hebrew w/ English subtitles, 56 min.)
