Film Club
Do you like movies? Do you enjoy watching and discussing Jewish films but don’t always have the chance? CDT members gather on Zoom (and in members’ homes when it becomes safe to do so again!) generally on the second Saturday of each month to discuss moving and thought-provoking Jewish films from around the world. Many of the films have been featured in recent Jewish film festivals.
Everyone is welcome to attend one or all films, so in that sense it’s not actually a club. Typically, films are available to watch on Kanopy, which requires you to sign up with a public library or university library card. We hope you'll join us!
Please note that dates and films are subject to change. Contact Emily Sper at filmclub@dorsheitzedek.org with questions, film suggestions, or if you’d like to lead a discussion about a particular film.

Upcoming Films:
April 8 (double-feature): Three Minutes: A Lengthening (1 hr 11 min, 2022): A snippet of 16mm film offers an emotionally charged, meditative glimpse into the lives of the unsuspecting Jewish citizens of a small Polish village at the precipice of World War II. The three
minutes of footage, mostly in color, are the only moving images left of the Jewish inhabitants of Nasielsk before the Holocaust. The existing three minutes are examined to unravel the human stories hidden in the celluloid.
Uncle Chatzkel (52 min, 2000): A personal documentary about Rod Freedman’s 93 year old great uncle in Lithuania, Uncle Chatzkel
portrays the patient triumph of one man’s dignity and intellect over genocide, oppression and personal tragedy.
May 13: Golden Voices (1 hr 28 mins, 2020): Raya and Victor built a shared career as the Soviet Union’s most beloved film dubbers. As the USSR collapses, the couple must immigrate to Israel and start anew by putting their vocal talents to unexpected use in the underground economy. A charming comedy about disrupting old dynamics, starting anew, and rediscovering yourself in the most unexpected places. Golden Voices is also a stirring tribute to the redemptive power of cinema.
