Jewish Congregation Tree

The Jewish Congregation of Oak Ridge will have its monthly Jewish Film Series on Saturday evening.

Each month, Rabbi Rashkovsky picks a different Jewish film ranging from comedy to drama, from fiction to documentary, a press release said. This month’s film will be “Kedma” (Israel, 2002, NR, 100 minutes).

“Having just survived the holocaust, a small group of Jewish refugees boards a ship and reaches the shores of Palestine,” the press release said. “One week later, the state of Israel will be established, launching them into another violent and confusing period in their lives.”

The film starts at 7 p.m. Saturday. It’s free, and refreshments will be provided, the release said.

JCOR is located at 101 W. Madison Lane in Oak Ridge

For more information, call (865) 486-3581 or visit the Jewish Congregation online at www.jcor.info.
