Organizers of this year's Ruth and Bernard Friedman Windsor Jewish Film Festival call this year's lineup a homage to Jewish heritage.
Starting Monday, the festival will feature ten films that break barriers by exposing the public to the diversity of Jewish culture.
"Our volunteer jury carefully and thoughtfully vetted each film, acknowledging that each motion picture is an uplifting nod to who we are as a people and our place in the community," said Co-chair of the festival Helen Arbour.
The festival starts with a showing of "Farewell to Mister Haffman" and closes with "Four Winters," a film that "shatters the myth of Jewish passivity during World War Two."
Cineplex Odeon at Devonshire Mall will showcase all ten films.
The schedule is as follows:
Farewell Mister Haffman on April 24 at 8 p.m. Where Life Begins on April 25 at 2 p.m. Hitler's Aunt on April 25 at 5 p.m. Barren on April 25 at 8 p.m. Tango Shalom on April 26 at 2 p.m. Image of Victory on April 26 at 5 p.m. The Replacement on April 26 at 8 p.m. Those Who Remained on April 27 at 2 p.m. Time To Say Goodbye on April 27 at 5 p.m. Four Winters on April 27 at 8 p.m.
Movie goers can buy tickets for $14 at Cineplex Odeon Devonshire Mall before the screening or on the Windsor Jewish Film Festival website.
The Windsor Jewish Film Festival started as a satellite event of the Detroit Jewish Film Festival. It is an initiative of the Windsor Jewish Federation and Community Centre.
