New Jersey Jewish Film Festival: Caregiver & Baby-Friendly Screening: Stay with Us (encore)

Date: Tuesday, April 9
Time: 10:00 am - 12:00 pm (EDT)

Come see an NJJFF film in an environment friendly to babies and their parents/caregivers. The lights will be dimmed instead of off, the volume will be lower than usual, and guests are free to move around. Baby noise is expected and nursing is welcomed. No charge for children and no worries!

PJ Library books & sensory items will be available for little hands to explore while caregivers connect and enjoy the movie!

Jewish-French entertainer Gad Elmaleh (one of France’s best-loved comedians) cowrote, directed, and stars in this comedy of spiritual discovery that blends fiction and autobiography. Undergoing a crisis of faith, the actor-comedian returns home to Paris. When his bewildered parents (portrayed by Elmaleh’s actual mother and father) discover a figurine of the Virgin Mary in his suitcase, he admits he is planning to be baptized a Catholic. Gad’s family and friends balk at this revelation, and he struggles to make them understand his sincere beliefs while grappling with his own uncertainties. This (maybe) true story probes difficult questions with warm humor.

We support and #StandWithIsrael as we continue to build a strong Jewish community here in NJ
