SUMMARY:AJFF Presents: Live and Become (FREE!)
DESCRIPTION:The anguished saga of an Ethiopian boy airlifted to Israel during the 1980s Operation Moses to escape persecution and famine\, unfolds in this sweeping epic. After his mother sends him to Israel under false pretenses\, Schlomo arrives posing as a Jewish orphan. Taken in by a liberal Jewish family\, he bears the burden of living a lie and struggling with racism\, while navigating love\, family\, and belonging. Three superb actors portray Schlomo at different ages\, with Yaël Abecassis poignantly playing his adoptive mother. Writer-director Radu Mihăileanu’s emotionally charged exploration of immigration\, assimilation\, and self-identity won the French Best Screenplay César\, the Berlinale Audience Award and Ecumenical Jury Prize.\n\n\nWHY WE LIKE THIS FILM: Celebrating the season of freedom this film is first and foremost a great drama\, but it also explores a number of interesting themes—freedom (especially the escape from famine and poverty)\, identity\, acceptance\, the treatment of migrants\, and so much more that is still very timely. For those celebrating Easter\, there are also interesting ideas of redemption and rebirth. This is just one of the many great films available on ChaiFlicks.

SUMMARY:Pirkei Avot Study (Congregation Shalom Rav)
DESCRIPTION:Pirkei Avot is a tractate in the Mishnah. From at least the time of Saadia Gaon (10th century)\, it has been customary to study one chapter a week between Passover and Shavuot; we will follow that tradition from 20 April – 1 June\, 2025. Weekly\, Sundays 9:30 – 10:30 am. Led by Ya’akov Love. Via Zoom.\nPirkei Avot (“Ethics of Our Fathers”) contains almost no laws\, consisting instead of short statements of advice\, ethics\, and wisdom. The first chapter outlines the stages of the transmission of the Oral Torah\, beginning with Moses at Mount Sinai and continuing through the prophets and sages. The next four chapters contain statements of rabbinic sages\, largely in chronological order. The last chapter focuses on the merits of Torah study.  We will use Sefaria as our primary source text\, supplemented by traditional and modern commentaries – including excerpts from The Baal Shem Tov on Pirkey Avoth.  An Introduction doc and Brief Biographies of the Sages with chronological timeline is provided for reference.
