DESCRIPTION:Event Details\nA very special screening on Monday\, May 11 at 7:30 PM\, as part of our Jewish American Heritage Month Programming of the heart-warming\, Miami based film – iMordacai. An uplifting comedy and a love letter to the city of Miami\, iMordecai urges us all to live the one life we have to the fullest. \nWriter\, Producer and Director Marvin Samel will make a special guest appearance. There will be a talkback after the movie. \nBased on a true story\, iMordecai stars Academy Award-nominated and two-time Emmy-winning actor Judd Hirsch (star of the Emmy-winning sitcom Taxi\, Ordinary People\, Independence Day) as Mordecai Samels and Academy Award-nominated actress Carol Kane (Hester Street) as his wife\, Fela\, both survivors from Poland\, who are now living in Miami.

But when Mordecai’s ancient flip phone breaks\, he starts to take lessons from Nina (newcomer Azia Dinea Hale)\, a yong employee of Ultratech. She tutors Mordecai on his new iPhone\, opening him up to all kinds of novel experiences and adventures\, which makes him feel like a kid again. \nThis film screening is presented in partnership with The Miami Jewish Film Festival.
