SUMMARY:Mashhad
DESCRIPTION:Set in the holy Islamic city of Mashhad in 1930’s Iran\, Mashhad follows Miriam\, a young Jewish ghetto girl struggling to understand why her family conceal who they are. An innocent day playing with a neighborhood friend soon threatens the fragile safety of two households.

Produced by Reboot Studios\, Mashhad offers a rare cinematic window onto a long-suppressed chapter of Iranian Jewish life. \nYear: 2025\nRuntime: 19 minutes\nGenre: Short\nCountry: United state\nLanguage: Persian\nSubtitle Language: English\nDirector: Sarah Solemani

SUMMARY:Baghdadi-Indian Shabbat
DESCRIPTION:Traveling along maritime trade routes\, Jewish merchants from Aleppo and Baghdad made their way east to the shores of India. Beginning in the late 18th century\, they settled in Kolkata\, where a vibrant Jewish community emerged\, shaped by the rhythms\, flavors\, and cultural textures of the subcontinent. Drawn by economic opportunity\, and at times fleeing plague and persecution\, they established new roots while preserving the liturgy\, customs\, and family traditions of their heritage\, even as these evolved into something distinctly their own. \nJoin us for a special Baghdadi–Indian Shabbat as we explore this rich and layered tradition. Friday night services will be led by Rahel Musleah\, a seventh-generation member of Kolkata’s Jewish community\, whose family traces its lineage to Baghdad. Through prayer\, melody\, and storytelling\, we will experience this unique synthesis of Baghdadi and Indian Jewish traditions as they have been passed down across generations. \nFollowing services\, guests will enjoy a Baghdadi–Indian Shabbat dinner alongside a single-evening exhibition\, “From Baghdad to Kolkata: Ritual Objects\, Vessels of Memory\,” featuring family heirlooms from the Kolkata Jewish community and offering a rare glimpse into a diasporic world where Middle Eastern and Indian identities intertwine.

SUMMARY:Funeral on Hold
DESCRIPTION:In the old quarter of Larache\, in northern Morocco\, Shlomo dies\, leaving behind troubling signs that shake the certainty surrounding his religious identity. His family and friends are quickly faced with an almost Kafkaesque dilemma: should he be buried in the Jewish cemetery or the Muslim cemetery? Returning from Canada amidst the turmoil\, his son David has only one thought in mind: to give his father a proper burial\, whatever the cost. Imad\, his childhood friend\, carries an invisible burden: through his negligence\, he believes himself responsible for Shlomo’s death. Since then\, the ghost of the deceased has haunted him\, calling him to finally take responsibility\, if only once\, to right his wrong. \nThrough these two men\, separated by life but bound by loyalty\, Burial on Hold explores this secret thread that connects people beyond time. The film is born from a desire for reconciliation: between the living and those they miss\, between a country and its memory. \nYear: 2026\nPremiere: North American\nRuntime: 96 minutes\nGenre: Comedy-Drama\nCountry: Morocco\, Canada\nLanguage: French\nSubtitle: English\nDirector: Mohammed Marouazi
