SUMMARY:Holocaust In The Balkans: “A Question Of Survival” Screening And Discussion
DESCRIPTION:A Question of Survival (55 minutes\, English\, subtitles available) is an eye-opening portrait of three Bulgarian Jews—Chaim Zemach\, a cellist; Robert Bakish\, an engineer; and Misha Avramoff\, a social worker on Manhattan’s Lower East Side—as they struggle to place their unusual experiences during World War II into the more common narrative of the Holocaust. Chaim\, Robert\, and Misha were children and young adults when Bulgaria’s pro-Nazi regime planned\, and then cancelled\, the deportation of the country’s 48\,000 Jews. The film explores the complex legacy of the Holocaust in the Balkans through their eyes and through their questions about the term “survivor.” Join the Museum for a special screening of A Question of Survival followed by a live discussion with the film’s director Elka Nikolova. The screening and discussion will occur both virtually and in person in the Museum’s Edmond J. Safra Hall.

SUMMARY:The Indispensables: The Diverse Soldier-Mariners Who Shaped the Country\, Formed the Navy\, and Rowed Washington Across the Delaware
DESCRIPTION:Zoom lecture. On the stormy night of August 29\, 1776\, the Continental Army faced capture or annihilation after losing the Battle of Brooklyn. The fate of the Revolution rested upon the shoulders of the soldier-mariners from Marblehead\, Massachusetts\, who saved the army by navigating the treacherous waters of the river the Manhattan. White\, Black\, Hispanic\, and Native American\, this uniquely diverse group of soldiers set an inclusive standard the US Army would not reach again for more than 170 years. In this lecture\, Patrick O’Donnell discusses how the Marbleheaders repeatedly altered the course of events during the Revolution—from forming the elite Guard that protected General Washington to ferrying Continental forces across the Delaware River on Christmas night of 1776.

SUMMARY:Abe
DESCRIPTION:Twelve-year-old Abe is an aspiring chef who wants his cooking to bring people together—but his half-Israeli\, half-Palestinian family has never had a meal that didn’t end in a fight. He’s played by Noah Schnapp in Abe (85 minutes\, English\, no subtitles)\, which was released in 2019. Ditching his traditional summer camp\, Abe begins working with an adventurous street chef who encourages him to think outside his old cuisines. But when Abe’s deceit is uncovered\, he must grapple with his family\, his background\, and his passions\, and whether even the most lovingly-cooked family dinner can heal old wounds.

SUMMARY:Charlatan
DESCRIPTION:Few true stories tread the thin line between good and evil as precariously as that of Jan Mikolášek\, a 20th century Czech herbal healer whose great success masked the grimmest of secrets. Discover Mikolášek’s story in Charlatan (118 minutes\, Czech and German with English subtitles)\, which was shortlisted for the Academy Award for Best International Film in 2021. Mikolášek won fame and fortune treating celebrities of the interwar\, Nazi\, and Communist eras with his uncanny knack for “urinary diagnosis.” But his passion for healing welled up from the same source as a lust for cruelty\, sadism\, and an incapacity for love that only one person could quell: his assistant\, František. As a show trial threatens to pry open these secrets and undo him\, Mikolášek’s dichotomies are put to a final test\, with the fate of his life’s only love in the balance. This is a personal tale as replete with twists as the 20th century itself\, and a reflection on the price one pays for single-mindedly following one’s calling.
