DESCRIPTION:Please join us for the opening night of the Miami Beach JCC’s Israeli Film Series\, with the screening of the beautiful comedy Matchmaking on Monday\, December 16\, at 7:30 p.m. \nEndlessly witty\, visually rapturous\, and sweetly romantic\, Matchmaking is a Romeo and Juliet-like saga . Matchmaking is Israel’s biggest box office hit of the year\, a joyous tale about tolerance and love. It is full of hijinks\, jokes\, and slapstick humor thanks to matchmaker Malki (Irit Kaplan from the beloved Israeli show The Beauty Queen of Jerusalem and Academy Award entry Foxtrot) and her deputy\, Baruch (Maor Schwitzer from the internationally acclaimed show Shtisel)\, along with plenty of one-liners about spicy salads and noodle kugels\, with a heavy dose of Yiddish sprinkled into the Hebrew script. \nSouth Beach Tavern sponsors the Israeli Film Series.

She is an accom­plished painter\, and her nov­els com­bine her deep love of art\, his­to­ry\, and trav­el.

SUMMARY:Lisa Barr & Lauren Grodstein – Barbara Eisenberg Literary Luncheon Series
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a very special Literary Luncheon event with two best selling authors\, Lisa Barr and Lauren Grodstein as they talk about their latestt Warsaw Ghetto themed books\, The Goddess of Warsaw & We Must Not Think of Ourselves\, on Wedenesday\, January 15th at 12:30 pm. \nThe Goddess of Warsaw depicts Bina Blon­s­ki and her hus­band\, Jakub in the Warsaw Ghetto.  cramped into the War­saw Ghet­to along with the rest of the Pol­ish Jew­ish pop­u­la­tion. Jakub is a jour­nal­ist work­ing hard to doc­u­ment all the heart­break­ing cur­rent events for pos­ter­i­ty; Bina\, an actress works for the resistance. \nMean­while\, the author turns to 1956 Hol­ly­wood to fol­low the sto­ry of actress Lena Brown­ing\, for­mer­ly known as Bina\, who is still oper­at­ing as a spy and assas­sin. She becomes inter­est­ed in Oper­a­tion Paper­clip\, a top-secret intel­li­gence pro­gram in which high-rank­ing Nazi sci­en­tists are being released from pun­ish­ment. Next we move to 2006\, when Lena Brown­ing is an old actress\, still known for her per­fect face. When Lena finds out that old ene­mies have sur­vived\, she is moved to work with Sien­na\, a fellow actress\, as a means of enact­ing a final vic­to­ry over the Nazis. \nThis book is a fast read\, with vivid descrip­tions of places and time peri­ods. \nWe Must Not Think of Ourselves is based on the story of Emanuel Ringelblum\, who began a secret project at the Warsaw Ghetto in 1941. The project’s name was “Oneg Shabbat” — the pleasure of the Sabbath. Its mission was to record interviews with confined Jews\, collect their testimonies\, archive them\, and pre­serve them for posterity. The central character is the teacher Adam Paskow\, who participates in this dangerous project and finds love\, risking his life. \nLisa Barr is The New York Times best­selling author of Woman on Fire\, The Unbreak­ables\, and the award-win­ning Fugi­tive Col­ors.

SUMMARY:FL JCC Virtual Author Event - Ilan Evyatar
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our virtual FL JCC Author Series with Ilan Evyatar\, Target Tehran; How Israel is Using Sabotage\, Cyberwarfare\, Assassination to Stop a Nuclear Iran and Create a New Middle East \nTar­get Tehran pro­vides a com­pre­hen­sive account of how Israel’s decades-old intel­li­gence agency\, Mossad\, has con­duct­ed oper­a­tions with the pur­pose of pre­vent­ing Iran from becom­ing a nuclear pow­er. Those oper­a­tions came to a head when\, in 2018\, Mossad agents stole two truck­loads of files that dis­closed the coun­try’s clear vio­la­tions of the 2015 nuclear deal it had signed. \nAlthough some details are still clas­si­fied or not yet released for attri­bu­tion\, the authors\, who are inves­tiga­tive reporters\, tell this remark­able sto­ry as ful­ly as pos­si­ble. Their nar­ra­tive reads like a spy nov­el: it is dra­mat­ic and riv­et­ing from the start. \nThe authors fin­ished writ­ing Tar­get Tehran in April 2023\, and they end their account with praise for the achieve­ments of Israel’s “elite spy agency.” One can­not help read­ing these words with Hamas’s Octo­ber 7 attack in mind. Notwith­stand­ing Mossad’s suc­cess­es\, the authors may now find them­selves inves­ti­gat­ing what at this stage appears to be a mon­u­men­tal intel­li­gence failure. \nllan Evy­atar is a for­mer edi­tor-in-chief of the award-win­ning mag­a­zine The Jerusalem Report\, and a for­mer News Direc­tor\, colum­nist\, and senior con­trib­u­tor at The Jerusalem Post. \n
