But when they reach a military checkpoint\, the soldiers claim that his entry permit into Israel is invalid and send him back home\, while his classmates continue their trip. Deeply disappointed\, Khaled sets out to reach the sea on his own – even though he doesn’t know the way and doesn’t speak any Hebrew.  When his father\, Ribhi\, an undocumented laborer working in Israel\, learns that his son is missing\, he leaves his job in search of him—risking arrest and the loss of his livelihood. A tender and poignant drama filled with human empathy\, this beautifully made film follows young Khaled on his innocent and heartfelt quest to fulfill his dream. Winner of 5 Israeli Academy Awards\, including Best Film\, Best Screenplay and Best Actor\, The Sea will be the official Israeli submission to the 2026 Oscars for Best International Feature Film. \nWinner: Best Film\, Best Screenplay\, Best Actor\, Best Supporting Actor\, Best Original Music\, Israeli Academy Awards 2025 \nWinner: Honorable Mention in Best Film category\, Jerusalem Int’l FF 2025 \nNominated: 13 Israeli Academy Awards 2025 \n  \nClick Here to Purchase Your Festival Passes   Click Here for the Complete Festival Schedule\n  \n \n  URL:https://bethtzedec.ca/event/the-sea/ LOCATION:Beth Tzedec CATEGORIES:Film Festival ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://bethtzedec.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/The-Sea-3-CROPPED-scaled.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20251108T163000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20251108T183000 DTSTAMP:20260421T165210 CREATED:20251020T154853Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251020T155359Z UID:10001682-1762619400-1762626600@bethtzedec.ca SUMMARY:Seudah Shelishit: Exploring Pirkei DeRabbi Eliezer DESCRIPTION:Pirkei De-Rabbi Eliezer (The Chapters of Rabbi Eliezer) is one of the most imaginative and wide-ranging works of rabbinic literature—a Talmudic-era collection of midrashim that retells and expands upon the Torah’s stories\, from the creation of the world to Miriam’s leprosy in the Book of Numbers. Within its pages you’ll find Jewish ethics\, ancient customs\, legends\, and even mystical calculations about the beginning and the end of time. Traditionally attributed to Rabbi Eliezer ben Hyrcanus\, a 2nd-century sage\, the text was likely compiled in the eighth or ninth century. \nJoin Rabbi Russ for a fascinating journey through this remarkable work—a tapestry of storytelling\, interpretation\, and spiritual imagination. Together\, we’ll explore how Pirkei De-Rabbi Eliezer reshapes familiar biblical narratives\, connects them to enduring Jewish values\, and invites us to see Torah through a lens of creativity and wonder. \nEach session will combine close reading with lively discussion\, making the class accessible to both newcomers and seasoned learners. \nCome discover why Pirkei De-Rabbi Eliezer has captivated readers for centuries—and how its timeless insights continue to inspire and challenge us today. \nRegistration not required\, but appreciated. \n\n\n \n \n Seudah Shelishit Registration Form\n Please use this form to register for the entire course. \n \n Name(Required)\n \n \n \n First\n \n \n \n \n Last\n \n \n Email(Required)\n \n PhoneHow many attendees would you like to register?

Combining archival material\, interviews and dramatic re-enactments\, Peabody award-winning director Abby Ginzberg gives long-overdue recognition to Szold’s legacy and brings her inspiring story to life.   \n  \nClick Here to Purchase Your Festival Passes   Click Here for the Complete Festival Schedule\n  \n \n  \n \n  \nProudly co-sponsored by \n  URL:https://bethtzedec.ca/event/labors-of-love-the-life-and-legacy-of-henrietta-szold/ LOCATION:Beth Tzedec CATEGORIES:Film Festival ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://bethtzedec.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Labors-of-Love-1-Baby-with-Henrietta_photo-by-Tim-Nahum-Gidal-©-The-Israel-Museum-Jerusalem-scaled.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20251102T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20251102T150000 DTSTAMP:20260421T165210 CREATED:20251002T184811Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251002T184907Z UID:10001666-1762088400-1762095600@bethtzedec.ca SUMMARY:Among Neighbors DESCRIPTION:USA/Poland 2025 | Director: Yoav Potash | English & Polish with English subtitles | 100 minutes\n\nDocumentary – USA \nToday\, in an era where difficult truths about the past are being silenced by a right-wing Polish government that seeks to deny any Polish complicity in the Holocaust\, Among Neighbors investigates the story of a small\, rural town where the longstanding peaceful co-existence between Jews and Polish-Catholic neighbours was shattered by World War II. Combining magical realism and evocative hand-drawn animation with revelatory interviews and verité footage\, the film focuses on the only living Holocaust survivor from the town\, and an aging eyewitness who\, six months after the war had ended\, saw Jews murdered there – not by Nazis\, but by her own Polish neighbours. Produced and directed by award-winning filmmaker Yoav Potash\, this powerful documentary uncovers accounts of love\, betrayal\, and a silenced and disturbing history. \n  \nClick Here to Purchase Your Festival Passes   Click Here for the Complete Festival Schedule\n  \n  \n \n  URL:https://bethtzedec.ca/event/among-neighbors/ LOCATION:Beth Tzedec CATEGORIES:Film Festival ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://bethtzedec.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Among-Neighbors_Horizontal-key-art-1-cropped.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20251101T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20251101T220000 DTSTAMP:20260421T165210 CREATED:20251002T155943Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251002T185339Z UID:10001665-1762025400-1762034400@bethtzedec.ca SUMMARY:The Blond Boy from the Casbah DESCRIPTION:France 2024 | Director: Alexandre Arcady | French & Arabic with English subtitles | 126 minutes\nDrama \nAntoine\, a celebrated filmmaker\, travels back to his birthplace\, Algiers\, with his young son to present his latest film: an account of his childhood in mid-20th century Algeria during the country’s civil war.

Step into the sacred season of Elul with intention\, community\, and heart. Join us on Sunday\, August 24 for a special Rosh Hodesh celebration as we welcome a new month and begin our spiritual journey toward the High Holidays. \nOur morning begins with a Shacharit service at 9:00 AM\, followed by a meaningful Rosh Chodesh program with Rabbi Ilana\, and a light brunch. Through prayer\, meditation\, Torah study\, chanting\, poetry\, and song\, we’ll reflect\, reconnect\, and ready our souls for the Days of Awe. \nAccording to tradition\, Rosh Hodesh has long held special significance for Jewish women. In reward for refusing to contribute to the building of the Golden Calf\, the women of Israel were gifted this holiday—a monthly moment of rest and spiritual renewal. Join us in honouring this legacy and embracing the power of Elul together. \nRegistration for this event closes on Thursday\, August 21. \n\n \n \n Rosh Hodesh Elul\n \n \n Name(Required)\n \n \n \n First\n \n \n \n \n Last\n \n \n Email(Required)\n \n Phone(Required)Are you a current Beth Tzedec member?(Required)\n \n \n Yes\, my membership is current for the 2024-25 year.\n \n \n \n No\, I am not a current Beth Tzedec member.\n Do you have any dietary or allergy concerns that we should know about?Price\n \n \n Price:\n \n \n \n There is NO CHARGE to participate in this event.
