| Every Sabbath morning the Mt. Herzl Academy Social Club meets at the eponymous National Cemetery, where its members—elderly, in-your-face Polish-born Jerusalemites (the director’s stupefying great-aunt among them)—debate Immanuel Kant, declaim poetry, argue incorrigibly, and together face inexorable losses. Don’t miss this tremendously moving, hilarious portrait of Israel’s emotionally rugged, dwindling Holocaust generation. |
