Wed. 8/9, 7-9 Pm @ Sppac

The Stowe Jewish Film Festival will present Cinema Sabaya on Wednesday, August 9, from 7:00-9:00 pm. at Spruce Peak Performing Arts Center. This film is a deft and heartfelt portrait of art's capacity to bridge cultural divides. (The Arabic word "sabaya" translates to "morning light.")

Filmed in Israel, Cinema Sabaya focuses on eight women, four Muslim and four Jewish, who come together for a video workshop.
Based on writer and director Orit Fouks Rotem's experience as a teacher and her encounter with the women, this prize winning film is full of love, humor, laughter, unexpected sorrows, and empowerment.

Immediately following the screening, Orit Fouks Rotem, an award-winning Israeli writer and the director of Cinema Sabaya, will actively participate in an audience-driven Q & A. Aladdin, a Middle Eastern eatery in Stowe, will provide savory and sweet noshes.
