Yiddish Film coming to Or Atid

               Yiddish Film at Or Atid, Sunday, May 15 at 4pm

Join us for a special showing of the 1937 film, The Dybbuk, directed by Michal Waszynski, considered a masterpiece of Yiddish cinema and one of the top 10 Jewish films (as selected by Kenneth Turan, film critic for the LA Times and NPR’s Morning Edition).

When a father breaks his promise and forbids the son of a close friend to marry his daughter, the would-be bridegroom kills himself in desperation -- but not before striking an unholy deal with the powers of darkness. Soon, his spirit possesses the heart of his beloved on the eve of her wedding to another.
