Calling all film and Jewish culture lovers! Please join us via Zoom for an informative and entertaining discussion of the impact Jews have had on film over the years. We will discuss some of the most impactful Jewish-themed films, highlight some of the Jews who have influenced the films behind the scenes and share a list of some of our favorite examples of Jewish-related movies that stand the test of time.
The discussion will be hosted by Temple Sinai members and Jewish movie buffs Alan Korn and Jeff Grossman and will include special guest Jon Gann. Jon, a film producer and director, has created award-winning commercial, documentary and narrative films since 2000. Jon is also a force in the film festival world, having created, consulted on and fostered dozens of events around the globe. He is the Founder of DC Shorts, a non-profit organization championing short filmmaking, and the creator of the DC Shorts Film Festival, one of the country’s premier short film showcases. And, most importantly, he is a Jewish film buff just like the co-hosts.
Get ready for a freewheeling and far-ranging discussion on all things “Jewish” in films!
