MJFF Special Presentation: "Treasure"
Posted by Lauren Gold on 06/04/2024 @ 04:19 PM
Monday, June 10, 7:30 PM
This Miami Jewish Film Festival (MJFF) special presentation of the acclaimed film Treasure, which stars legendary screen actor Stephen Fry and eight-time Emmy nominee Lena Dunham, is a one-night-only event. Be among the first to see the film just two days after its Tribeca Festival premiere!
Directed by MJFF alum Julia von Heinz (Hanna's Journey) and based on the best-selling autobiographical novel, this heartwarming film tells the story of a father and daughter who reunite, reconcile and tour Poland in 1990, just after the fall of the Iron Curtain. Their journey takes them to Warsaw, Łódź, Krakow and the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp.
Ruth (Dunham) is eager to explore her family's history, while Edek (Fry), a charmingly stubborn Holocaust Survivor, tags along mainly to keep an eye on her. It's only when they visit the family's former home and meet the Polish family living there that Edek's attitude begins to change. This emotional and funny story of two New Yorkers navigating post-socialist Poland is a powerful example of how reconnecting with family and the past can be an unexpected treasure.
