The Return (2014, dir. Adam Zucker)
Wednesday, October 7, 6:00-8:00 PM, 360 Journalism Building
Filmmaker Adam Zucker tracks the stories of four young women as they navigate what it means to be Jewish in Poland today. Through their personal experiences, the film explores questions of identity, community, heritage, and belonging in a country shaped by a complex Jewish past and a changing present.
Co-sponsored by the Department of Slavic and East European Languages and Cultures, the Melton Center for Jewish Studies, the Polish Club at Ohio State and the Polish Studies Initiative.
