Yom HaShoah Film Screening & Discussion: Papillon

Papillon (The Butterfly) was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Animated Short. It depicts the life of Jewish French swimmer Alfred Nakache, who competed in the 1936 Berlin Olympics in Nazi Germany. The film beautifully and evocatively depicts Nakache’s experiences. We will screen and discuss the film leading into the evening service at 8:00 pm.
