Next Year in Bombay
Jonas Parienté and Mathias Mangin (France/India, 2010, 55m)
When: July 28, 2011, 1:30pm
Where: Castro Theatre
Screening with the short film, Starring David (19 min.)
Next Year in Bombay profiles the surprising diversity of India’s Jewish communities, some of which have existed for over 2,500 years. Now, however, they are struggling to maintain their culture and traditions as their populations dwindle. At the heart of the film is the story of a young couple torn between their desire to see Judaism thrive in India and their commitment to providing their children with a Jewish education only possible if they move to Israel.
