Challah and Comedy: How Movies Shape Cultural Identity and Public Perception
Hosted By: Chai Mitzvah
Chai Mitzvah presents a conversation between Scott Shay and Jewish-American filmmaker Daniel Robbins, winner of the 2024 Tribeca Film Festival Audience Award for his comedy “Bad Shabbos.” Starring Kyra Sedgwick, David Paymer, and Method Man, the film humorously portrays a Shabbat dinner gone wrong. The discussion will also explore the cultural impact of films such as “The Godfather” and “My Big Fat Greek Wedding,” and how cinema shapes public perceptions of religious traditions and cultural identity.
