Welcome to Yiddishland (Australia) screening in Brighton, UK

November 20 @ 19:00 - 21:00 UTC+0
Welcome to Yiddishland – a NOMINATED FOR BEST DOCUMENTARY AWARD FILM (Australia) has made it to the UK! The UK PREMIERE will be in London on 9 November, then see it in Brighton on 20 November. Merlin Shepherd will be at the Q&A sessions following the screening.
 
 
This fascinating documentary explores the ongoing revival of the Yiddish language, and delves into how the resurgence of Yiddish is being driven by a diverse range of artistic, musical, and cultural projects across the world. These range from an Australian theatrical production of Yentl in Yiddish, and the annual Yiddish Summer Weimar music festival, in Germany, to an all-singing, all-dancing Yiddish Revue. Also featured is the Caravan Orchestra and Choir , bringing together young Israeli/Palestinian and European musicians, to combine Yiddish and Middle Eastern musical traditions.
