In the musical comedy LESS THAN KOSHER, a wayward singer’s life takes a divinely uproarious turn when she lands a cantor gig in her family’s synagogue, sparking self-discovery, family meshugas, and unholy chaos. At 20, Viv was a promising young singer. At 30, her failing music career has forced her back into her mother’s basement. But when this self-proclaimed “Bad Jew” somehow lands a job as a cantor at her family’s synagogue, she’s thrown into a wild ride of illicit affairs, tense family drama, Tik Tok fame and self discovery. Closing Day and Night screenings in Chandler and Scottsdale, respectively.

The film is so well done, it’s funny, there’s rhythm and it’s surprising, the twists and turns are brilliant. [credit Ninon]
THE POLISH WOMEN offers a taste of early 1900’s Rio de Janeiro through the lens of atmospheric vintage footage that brings this South American city to life. It also tells the little known, true story of Polish Jewish women in the late 19th and early 20th century who were deceived by traffickers and forced into prostitution in Argentina and Brazil.
The outstanding strength of “Halisa” lies in the remarkable authenticity of its screenplay. The narratives woven throughout the film seem as if they were drawn from the personal experience of the film’s creator, Sophie Artus. The exceptional performances by Koler and Berkovitz are manifested in their natural chemistry during their shared scenes. It’s particularly noteworthy that this is Berkovitz’s debut appearance on the big screen, a fact that is not at all apparent in her impressive performance. [credit Yotam]
