7th Annual Israeli Film Festival

Tikvat Israel to Screen Pair of Israeli Films in January

Congregation Tikvat Israel will hold its 7th annual Israeli Film Festival with a pair of award-winning films in January. "The Matchmaker" will be shown on Jan. 7, with "Galilee Eskimos" set for Jan. 21. Both will start at 7:45 p.m.
 
Tickets are $10 for synagogue members, $12 for non-members, which include a post-film facilitated discussion and light refreshments. The film discussions will be led by Anton Goodman of the Jewish Federation of Greater Washington.
 
Serving as co-sponsors are the Israel Engagement Committee of the Jewish Federation of Greater Washington and the Jewish Agency for Israel.
 
Following the "Galilee Eskimos," Goodman will be joined by a panel of young Israelis discussing their experiences as Kibbutzniks and how the film reflects that experience.
