The Band's Visit, on numerous lists of the most critically-acclaimed films of 2007, comes to EMJC's screening room on Sunday, January 18th at 4PM.

The movie, Israeli filmmaker Eran Kolirin's debut feature, is a subtle, heartfelt and humane work that goes a long way toward dissolving the incredibly complex cultural divide that continues to plague the Middle East. Check out reviews and a synopsis of the film here, and don't miss it on the afternoon of Sunday the 18th.

Join EMJC's Club Oasis for an incredible evening of music - havdallah and melaveh malkah with The Shuk - featuring Yoni Avital.

Saturday, January 24, 2009 - festivities begin at 7:30PM.

$20 per person; Middle Eastern foods available. In our beautiful Grand Ballroom.
