Film Club at Sinai No Name Restaurant : Sunday, July 26, in the Mirkin Chapel. Doors open at 6:15 pm for schmoozing and free refreshments, and the film begins promptly at 6:30 pm with discussion to follow. Entrance and refreshments are free.
No Name Restaurant (2022, 2 hrs.) was originally titled in Yiddish Nicht ganz koscher: Eine gottliche Komodie. This light comedy presents a reverse direction exodus, in which a grouchy Bedouin tracker reluctantly agrees to get an annoyingly optimistic ultra-orthodox Jew from Israel to Egypt to save the last Jewish community there, but the guide's truck breaks down in the middle of the Sinai desert forcing the two to wander and grumble in the wilderness together. The rest is miraculous and funny.
