Film Club
The Zoom link is for members only and is listed immediately below this line; if you aren't able to see the link, please log in to the website by clicking the green "Member - Login" button in the top righthand corner.
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.
