Jews on Film: Exploring Jewish Stories & Themes in Cinema BONUS: Sabbath Queen w/ Sandi DuBowski
Daniel and Harry welcome director Sandi Dubowski to talk about his new documentary film, Sabbath Queen. They discuss what it was like to film Amichai Lau-Lavie and his life over the course of 21 years and how does someone know when a film is finished?
In addition they cover the depictions of the various expressions of Judaism onscreen and how Amichai sought to create his own path after wrestling with his families legacy. Finally, Sandi shares some thoughts around weaving more current events into the film post October 7th and how coming to the table with others to dialogue is more important than ever.
