SUMMARY:“Resistance” Film: Online Discussion with Actor Jesse Eisenberg

Watch the trailer here.\nThe film is available on demand from Amazon\, Apple\, and other platforms.\nThe event co-sponsored by area synagogues and presented in partnership with\nIFC Films and Tamar Simon from Mean Streets Management.

SUMMARY:VIRTUAL - Discovering Memoirs
DESCRIPTION:Join the Fiction Addiction Book Group virtually in reading Inheritance by Dani Shapiro\, new members are always welcome. Register for this program in order to receive a Zoom link and password prior to the meeting. \nWhat makes us who we are? What combination of memory\, history\, biology\, experience\, and that ineffable thing called the soul defines us? \nIn the spring of 2016\, through a genealogy website to which she had whimsically submitted her DNA for analysis\, Dani Shapiro received the stunning news that her father was not her biological father. She woke up one morning and her entire history–the life she had lived–crumbled beneath her. \nInheritance is a book about secrets–secrets within families\, kept out of shame or self-protectiveness; secrets we keep from one another in the name of love. It is the story of a woman’s urgent quest to unlock the story of her own identity\, a story that has been scrupulously hidden from her for more than fifty years\, years she had spent writing brilliantly\, and compulsively\, on themes of identity and family history. It is a book about the extraordinary moment we live in–a moment in which science and technology have outpaced not only medical ethics but also the capacities of the human heart to contend with the consequences of what we discover.
