SUMMARY:Beth El Night at JxJ: DC Jewish Film and Music Festival
DESCRIPTION:One of the highlights of the year is almost here!  The Edlavitch DCJCC’s JxJ: DC Jewish Film and Music Festival begins on May 7 and runs through May 17. Once again\, Beth El has a special opportunity. \nTickets sales through the Beth El website are now closed. You can still join us by purchasing tickets through the JxJ website @ https://www.edcjcc.org/jxj/show/opening-night-once-upon-my-mother/ before the film sells out.  Use the coupon code: “BETHELMOTHER” to get a discount off the regular ticket price. Make sure to purchase tickets for the May 7 showing at Bethesda Row Theater. \nInspired by Roland Perez’s autobiographical novel\, Once Upon My Mother is an emotionally rich and often funny drama set in 1960s France. When Esther Perez\, a spirited Moroccan-Jewish mother of six\, refuses to accept a bleak prognosis for her newborn son born with a clubfoot\, her fierce determination to help him live “normally” shapes his life well into adulthood and creates a bond that is both powerful and complicated. Featuring music by Jewish music legend Sylvie Vartan\, who appears as herself\, this vibrant cinematic gem became a major crowd-pleaser in France\, celebrating the extraordinary\, against-all-odds devotion of a mother’s love. \nTo explore other festival screenings\, click here.

SUMMARY:Yom HaShoah Film Screening & Discussion: Papillon
