JFBB Film Evening at the Schmellwitz Open Air Cinema Nights

Once again, the JFBB was a guest in Cottbus with a selected film - a tradition in the heart of Lusatia. Andreas Stein, Managing Director of the JFBB, was there to introduce the festival to the audience on Ernst-Mucke-Platz and talk about the importance of Jewish perspectives in cinema.

The film shown tells the moving story of an unusual friendship between the young Palestinian Ali and the Russian-Jewish Holocaust survivor Alexander - a sensitive drama about intergenerational conflicts, cultural divides and the power of reconciliation.

We would like to thank the organisers of the Schmellwitz Open Air Cinema Nights for the successful collaboration!
