With great pleasure, I announce the next Movie Matinee at Beit Knesset Hanassi. The film is “Remember”. Zev, suffering from dementia in a New York nursing home, learns that the SS guard who killed his family in Auschwitz is alive. Determined to avenge the murders, Zev sets off on the cross-country mission. Facing impossible challenges along the way, he will not be deterred. Justice will not be denied.
Although the film is
fictional, most significantly it includes a real-life, little-known,
extremely interesting Holocaust situation. This will be explained and
expounded upon after the screening.
This award-winning,
edge-of-your-seat drama would have thrilled Hitchcock. It stars two
superb actors—Martin Landau and Christopher Plummer. The movie has
been loved by audiences! You will be thinking about long after seeing
it.
The Movie Matinee is
on July 18 at 2:00. The film is in English with English subtitles. It
is 1½ hours. In addition, there will be a brief introduction of the
film, a short talk and discussion after the screening and a handout
about the movie.
There will be
refreshments. No reservations are required. Beit Knesset Hanassi is
located at 24 Ussishkin Street.
