A German comedyby Swiss filmmaker Dani Levy that deals with modern Jewish identity in present-day Germany. It can be seen as part of the "Ossi-Wessi" (east-west) confrontation within Germany.

Levy depicts how the lives of two Jewish families are turned upside down by a twist of fate. The film offers a symbolic account of how, after the division of Germany in East and West, the country and its people are struggling to find each other again after unification.

The film will be shown in German with English subtitles. Afterwards there will be a moderated discussion in German.

The event is free but space is limited, RSVP to library@toronto.goethe.org
