SUMMARY:Seattle Jewish Film Festival Shorts Program
DESCRIPTION:On Wednesday\, March 13 at 7 p.m.\, Gesa Power House Theatre proudly partners once again with the Seattle Jewish Film Festival for 2024’s short film showcase: Lights\, Action\, Community! \nCentered around “Safe Travels?” (?טיולים בטוחים)\, this line-up has been curated by Walla Walla Movie Crush cofounder and our own Director of Film Programming Warren Etheredge. \nWe hit the road for many reasons: to seek\, to escape\, to grieve\, to revive. Jews find deeper meaning in the phrase Lech-Lecha —Hebrew for “go forth” or “go to yourself”— the notion that\, consciously or not\, guides the characters in this program of shorts: from the addict who drags her friend on a quest to Tzfat\, to the animated grandmother drag-racing to escape the law; from the man who drives a young woman to the border to a mother and daughter turn a trip to a big-box store into a referendum on familial hierarchies and desires. \nThe short films to be featured in this year’s festival are as follows: \nIN THE GARDEN OF TULIPS  \nJulia Elihu | Narrative Short | US | 2023 | Farsi w/English subtitles | 14m\nAt the height of the Iran-Iraq War\, Caroline takes a final car ride with her father through the Iranian countryside. \nARAVA\nSarah Meital Benjamin | Narrative Short | Israel  | 2023 | Hebrew w/English subtitles | 27m\nIn 2000s Jerusalem\, Arava reluctantly goes on a trip with her unpredictable best friend\, Tzipi. Along the way\, they’re confronted with the intricacies of their individual identities\, hopes\, losses\, and their relationship to one another. \nDEADLINE  \nIdan Gilboa | Stop-Motion Comedy Short | Israel | 2023 | Hebrew w/English subtitles | 13m\nTwo elderly women\, offended by the disrespect they experience at the hands of society\, become friends and revolt in this dark comedy. \nSULAM\nNoam Argov | Narrative Short | US | 2023 | Hebrew w/English subtitles | 11m \nWhen an immigrant teen in Central Florida must help her mother before a school exam\, tensions about belonging in and ease adapting to a new country bubble to the surface. \nPLUS IN MEMORIUM: THE BOY (הילד)*\nYahav Winnerz”l | Short Drama | Israel |2023 | Hebrew w/English subtitles | 25m \n*To honor the memory of Israeli filmmaker Yahav Winnerz”l\, SJFF is one of many film festivals around the world presenting a special premiere of his final film. Winner was murdered on October 7 while bravely stalling Hamas terrorists so his wife and their one-month-old daughter could escape to safety. We find solace in celebrating his life and work.  \nCompleted just a few months ago\, THE BOY tells the story of a father and son dealing with rocket fire while living in Kfar Aza\, a kibbutz bordering the Gaza strip. Winner’s prescient film won best cinematography at this year’s Tel Aviv International Student Film Festival. \nReserved seating tickets are $15 ($10 for students) and are available online or by calling the box office at 509-529-6500. \nA program of the Stroum Jewish Community Center\, the Seattle Jewish Film Festival runs March 2-17.
