SUMMARY:Asia
DESCRIPTION:Shira Haas made an indelible impression as the Emmy-nominated lead in the recent TV series Unorthodox. In Asia (2020\, 85 minutes\, Hebrew with English subtitles)\, Haas stars as a Russian émigré to Israel\, navigating her teenage years along with her single mother\, burdened by a largely undefined illness that makes all of her decisions infinitely more poignant. The film explores the inevitable chasm that divides the generations and creates barriers between the healthy and the sick – while telling a universal and timeless story of maternal love and loss.

SUMMARY:Stories Survive: Dorien Grunbaum
DESCRIPTION:Dorien Grunbaum was born in 1942 in Rotterdam\, Netherlands\, where her father was in the grain import/export business and her mother was a social worker. When Dorien was a year old\, her family was arrested and sent to Westerbork transit camp\, where they remained imprisoned for nine months. At Westerbork\, the Grunbaum family received papers from Dorien’s aunt and uncle in Mexico which granted them permission to emigrate to Palestine. These papers won the family better treatment for a short time in Bergen-Belsen\, where they were transferred from Westerbork in February 1944. After enduring horrors at Bergen-Belsen and then being liberated by the Soviet Army\, the Grunbaum family moved to the United States. Dorien was four years old. She has recently pieced together her family’s story from documents\, stories\, and her own memories. Join the Museum for a Stories Survive program exploring the Grunbaum family’s survival in the Holocaust and Dorien’s efforts to reconstruct their story.

SUMMARY:Two Stage Sisters: A Story of Old China\, Retold
DESCRIPTION:Xie Jin’s masterpiece was not shown in China until almost two decades after it was made. Banned for its depiction of old China\, the film is in many ways the summation of the cinematic style that began in Shanghai in the 1930s: brilliant use of space\, powerful camera movement\, and a story that follows the conflicting\, contradictory fates of its protagonists. Two Stage Sisters is also a perceptive meditation on Chinese opera itself\, chronicling changes in style and their relation to shifting notions of the role of art. Synopsis: In 1935\, a runaway bride hides out with a traveling Xiaoxing opera troupe; after allowing her to stay\, the company trains her and soon she is taking on the dan roles while her “sister” takes on the sheng male roles. Soon the two move on to Shanghai\, where they become hailed as the “queens” of the opera world. But as they learn\, such success comes with a price\, and each sister must decide how to manage her art and her life—as China navigates through WWII\, then the Civil War\, and finally the victory of the Communist Party.

SUMMARY:The Buddhist Art to the East: A Monumental Spread
DESCRIPTION:Online lecture. Buddhist art emerged from India\, spread eastwards to Central Asia\, Xinjiang\, the Hexi Corridor\, and eventually arrived at the heartland of China. This monumental movement ran along the Silk Road over the course of a thousand years\, integrating the Hellenistic culture with the Indian\, Persian\, Nomadic\, and Chinese. The Renwen Society presents a lecture on August 7 on this epic movement by Dr. Mao Ming\, a specialist in the Buddhist art. Adopting an archaeological approach\, and based on her own fieldwork experience\, Dr. Ming Mao will share with the audience the five major developments in the Buddhist art following its eastward spread: the Gandhara Art in India\, the Termez sites in Central Asia\, the Kizil caves in Xinjiang\, the Dunhuang Grottos\, and the Yungang & Longmen caves. In explaining these developments\, Dr. Mao will also examine five major different artistic depictions and representations of the Buddha.

SUMMARY:Thou Shalt Not Hate
DESCRIPTION:A split-second decision at a traffic accident triggers repercussions for a Jewish surgeon and a neo-Nazi’s daughter in Thou Shalt Not Hate (2021\, 96 minutes\, Italian with English subtitles)\, a gripping new drama. Simone\, a Holocaust survivor’s son\, rushes to the scene of a hit-and-run. But when he sees a swastika tattoo on the victim’s chest\, he leaves the gravely wounded man to his fate. Wracked with guilt\, the anguished doctor confronts the ethics of his choice\, and bonds with the victim’s daughter\, embroiling himself in greater conflict. Posing profound questions about redemption and the paradoxes of the human soul in the face of hate\, this provocative parable was winner of the Best Italian Film and Best Actor awards at the Venice International Film Festival.
