SUMMARY:Road to Eilat - Israeli Film Series
DESCRIPTION:Event Details\nJoin us for the Israeli Film Series Screening of Road to Eilat\, on Monday\, January 5\, 7:30 PM. \nWinner of Best Israeli Film\, Best Actor\, and Best Cinematography at the Jerusalem Film Festival\, and nominated for an additional 8 Israeli Academy Awards (Ophirs)\, Road to Eilat is a semi-autobiographical bittersweet tale about estranged father and son Kibbutzniks who set off on an eventful road trip across Israel on an old tractor. The story centers around Albert\, an aging war veteran brilliantly portrayed by Shmuel Vilozni (MJFF films Fractures and And Then She Arrived)\, who one fateful night impulsively makes a drunken bet: that he will drive his rundown old tractor all the way to Eilat. Ben\, his grumpy and jobless son\, is reluctantly roped into the adventure. Together\, this feisty odd couple embarks on an extraordinary journey across the entire expanse of Israel\, chugging along at a steady 35 km/h pace\, with the ambitious goal of completing the trip in just one week. Along the way\, their comical and poignant road trip leads to forgiveness and understanding as they travel from their kibbutz through the overlooked corners of Israel\, encountering fellow travelers who share their hope for a brighter future and a better life. \nThe Israeli Film Series is presented in partnership with The Miami Jewish Film Festival and generously sponsored by South Pointe Tavern.

SUMMARY:JCCU Lunch and Learn: Yiddish Children's Literature and the American Jewish Experience
DESCRIPTION:Event Details\nCome learn how Yiddish children’s literature shapes our modern Jewish world with Miriam Udel\, author of Modern Jewish Worldmaking Through Yiddish Children’s Literature \nWritten in an accessible and humane way\, the book considers the neglected corpus of literature written for children in Yiddish during the twentieth century as a new archive for reexamining the modern Ashkenazi experience\, especially during the twentieth century. The book grapples with changes in family life and our understanding of childhood\, alongside Jewish experiences of migration and the need to confront antisemitic violence. Because we all walk around now wondering which year of the 1930’s we’re currently living in\, the book offers a lot of contemporary resonance. \nABOUT THE AUTHOR: \nMIRIAM UDEL is Judith London Evans Director of the Tam Institute of Jewish Studies and associate professor of Yiddish language\, literature\, and culture at Emory University\, where she studies the Jewish encounter with modernity. She holds an AB in Near Eastern Languages and Civilizations and a PhD in Comparative Literature\, both from Harvard University. Her academic research interests include 20th-century Yiddish literature and culture\, Jewish children’s literature\, American-Jewish literature\, and genre studies. She is also the author of Never Better!: The Modern Jewish Picaresque (University of Michigan Press\, 2016)\, winner of the 2017 National Jewish Book Award in Modern Jewish Thought and Experience\, and Honey on the Page: A Treasury of Yiddish Children’s Literature (NYU Press\, 2021). Udel was ordained in 2019 as part of the first cohort of the Executive Ordination Track at Yeshivat Maharat\, a program designed to bring qualified mid-career women into the Orthodox rabbinate. \n  \nJCC-U Day of Learning-Wednesday’s at the J \n$30 per week (Includes Lunch) \nMembers & Patrons: FREE (Includes Lunch) \nThis program was made possible by the generous support from Baptist Health
