| Filmmaker Milos Silber invites everyone to a special screening of his new documentary - Los Judios de Cuba , The Jews of Cuba. Cuba is known for its revolutionary leaders, communism, cigars and 50's cars. But, religion, a founding characteristic among many nations, does not define this small island. When the Cuban Revolution hit in 1961, religion was banned, leaving the Cuban Jewish Community struggling to sustain itself for 3 decades. Los Judios De Cuba tells the humbling story of the 1500 Jews who remained in Cuba . With Exclusive interviews from members of this scattered Jewish community, this documentary explores how this new generation re-learned what so many forgot. The journey to rediscovering and reviving Jewish life raises questions about faith, sustenance, strength and the future that the Cuban Jews face. |
