“Yaniv” Film Screening

“Yaniv” Film Screening

With talkback, after party, and game play

A high school teacher in the Bronx (Ben Ducoff) loses funding for the school musical and convinces his fellow statistics teacher—secretly a recovering gambling addict—to help him cheat at an underground card game run by the Hasidic Jewish community. The plan goes awry with mounting consequences but help comes at an unexpected time from the least likely people.

Film will be followed by a discussion with writer/director Amnon Carmi and writer/actor Ben Ducoff into a fun teaching/play of the card game Yaniv.

Wednesday, 1/21: 7:00 – 10:00 PM   
Event will take place in the Eric Brown Theater
