Ushpizin Movie Discussion with Julie Mayer
Thursday, October 8, 2020 • 20 Tishrei 5781
7:30 PM - 9:30 PMPlease watch the movie in advance on your favorite streaming option (or request from the library.) Here is a description of the movie:
In Jerusalem's orthodox neighborhoods, it's Succoth, seven days celebrating life's essentials in a sukkah, a temporary shack of both deprivation and hospitality. A devout couple, Moshe and Mali, married nearly five years and childless, are broke and praying for a miracle. Suddenly, miracles abound: a friend finds Moshe a sukkah he says is abandoned, Moshe is the beneficiary of local charitable fundraising, and two escaped convicts arrive on Moshe and Mali's doorstep in time to be their ushpizin - their guests. The miracles then become trials. Rabbinical advice, absolution, an effort to avoid anger, and a 1000-shekel citron figure in Moshe's dark night of the soul. Written by Shuli Rand and directed by Gidi Dar. Subtitled.
