Upbeat, witty and timely exploration of a global community of artists revitalizing Yiddish
The Sedona International Film Festival is proud to present the Northern Arizona premiere of “Welcome to Yiddishland” showing July 4-10 at Alice Gill-Sheldon Theatre.
“Welcome to Yiddishland” offers an upbeat, witty and timely exploration of a global community of artists who are rediscovering and revitalizing the endangered Yiddish language through their progressive and provocative creative works.
As we travel through Yiddishland — not a homeland but a heartland without borders — we journey across continents, from Melbourne to Berlin, New York to Haifa to meet the diverse array of individuals who find solace, identity, and inspiration within Yiddish language and culture.
“Welcome to Yiddishland” will be shown at the Alice Gill-Sheldon Theatre July 4-10. Showtimes will be Friday, Sunday and Thursday, July 4, 6 and 10 at 3:30 p.m.; and Tuesday and Wednesday, July 8 and 9 at 6:30 p.m.
Tickets are $12, or $9 for Film Festival members. For tickets and more information, please call 928-282-1177. Both the theatre and film festival office are located at 2030 W. Hwy. 89A, in West Sedona. For more information, visit: www.SedonaFilmFestival.org.
