The New Jewish Culture Fellowship is excited to present a screening of three short films by Brooklyn filmmakers Daniel Terna (NJCF Fellow, 2018), Ellie Lobovits (NJCF Fellow, 2020), and Adam Golfer (NJCF Fellow, 2022) that explore what it means to remember, to forget, to gather the pieces and refashion them into new narratives. Using family as subject matter, the filmmakers each grapple with anxieties around mortality and the fallibility of generational memory, employing elements of home movies, found interviews, visual diaries, photographs, and reenactment.
The screening will be held in the Union Temple House sanctuary, a space originally built in the 1920s as a theater for Brooklyn’s flourishing Jewish community. The screening will be 70 minutes and followed by a conversation between journalist and podcaster Avery Trufelman and the artists.
