Sisterhood Presents…
David | Sistahood Speakeasy
Join Sisterhood as we see David at the San Diego Jewish Film Festival
Tuesday, February 14th, 10:30 a.m. at the JCC
Can the son of a prominent Imam and an Orthodox Jewish boy become friends in Brooklyn’s brew of separate ethnic enclaves? With evenhanded sensitivity and a deft touch which includes humor, the filmmaker explores the question of how preteen Daud can both retain his core identity as a Muslim and enter into another culture. One day, he inadvertently befriends a group of Yeshiva boys who mistake him for a classmate. Unable to resist a camaraderie he’s never experienced before, David (as they know him), is drawn into a complicated dilemma of competing identities. David is an examination of how cultural and ethnic boundaries can be transcended as well as a heartwarming story of youthful friendship.
We will meet at 9:00 a.m. in the Tifereth Israel parking lot for carpools. Contact Judy Morgenstern for more information. Directions to the Lawrence Family JCC are here.
