Description
Join us for Dinner and a Movie featuring Among Neighbors, a new award-winning documentary that examines the mystery of a small, rural town in Poland where people of two different faiths lived side by side for centuries, until the killing began.
Bring your own dinner and eat together before settling in for the screening. The evening will continue with a discussion with Roberta Grossman, co-founder and executive director of Jewish Story Partners.
