SUMMARY:Frontier – A St. Louis Jewish Film Festival Event
DESCRIPTION:2025\, MPA Rating: NR\nSpain\, Spanish with English subtitles\nJudith Colell\nFeature: 97 minutes \nSet in 1943\, Frontier tells the true story of a Spanish customs officer who quietly helps Jewish refugees escape Nazi-occupied France — one life at a time. As his solitary acts of defiance grow into an underground rescue effort\, he and his wife are forced to confront the lingering trauma of the Spanish Civil War and the very real danger posed by Nazi patrols along the border. Every choice carries risk\, and silence itself becomes a moral decision. Tense\, humane\, and deeply moving\, Frontier honors the courage of ordinary people who\, in a moment of history’s greatest darkness\, chose to act — knowing the cost\, and acting anyway. \nTrailer\n \nB&B Theatres Creve Coeur West Olive 10\nThis St. Louis Jewish Film Festival event is at B&B Theatres Creve Coeur West Olive 10\, a newly remodeled luxury entertainment center featuring 10 auditoriums with laser projection\, digital audio\, and heated electric reclining seats for an elevated viewing experience.

SUMMARY:The Tasters – A St. Louis Jewish Film Festival Event
DESCRIPTION:2025\, MPA Rating: NR\nItaly\, German with English subtitles\nSilvio Soldini\nFeature: 118 minutes \nInspired by a shocking true story\, The Tasters is a chilling portrait of survival inside Hitler’s inner circle. In the autumn of 1943\, Rosa\, a young woman fleeing bombed Berlin\, is forced into a terrifying role: along with other women from a remote village near the Wolf’s Lair\, she must taste the Führer’s meals each day — never knowing if the food is poisoned. Caught between starvation and the constant threat of death\, the women form fragile bonds marked by fear\, rivalry\, and desperate loyalty. Claustrophobic and quietly devastating\, The Tasters exposes the psychological toll of living under absolute terror\, where survival demands silence\, complicity\, and unbearable choices — and where even the most private emotions become acts of risk. \nTrailer\n \nB&B Theatres Creve Coeur West Olive 10\nThis St. Louis Jewish Film Festival event is at B&B Theatres Creve Coeur West Olive 10\, a newly remodeled luxury entertainment center featuring 10 auditoriums with laser projection\, digital audio\, and heated electric reclining seats for an elevated viewing experience.

SUMMARY:The Pianist's Choice – A St. Louis Jewish Film Festival Event
DESCRIPTION:2025\, MPA Rating: NR\nFrance\, French/German with English subtitles\nJacques Otmezguine\nFeature: 102 minutes \n“During the war\, music becomes the last hope.” Set in occupied France\, The Pianist’s Choice is a haunting wartime romance where art becomes both refuge and reckoning. François Touraine is a gifted young pianist whose life is forever changed by his relationship with Rachel\, his older Jewish piano teacher. When the Nazis take control of Paris\, love and music collide with terror\, forcing François into an impossible moral dilemma: whether to use his talent to perform for the occupiers in a desperate attempt to save the woman he loves. Tender\, tragic\, and deeply resonant\, The Pianist’s Choice explores the cost of survival when art is entangled with power — and asks what remains of music\, love\, and conscience after the war has passed. \nTrailer\n \nB&B Theatres Creve Coeur West Olive 10\nThis St. Louis Jewish Film Festival event is at B&B Theatres Creve Coeur West Olive 10\, a newly remodeled luxury entertainment center featuring 10 auditoriums with laser projection\, digital audio\, and heated electric reclining seats for an elevated viewing experience.

SUMMARY:The Ring – A St. Louis Jewish Film Festival Event
DESCRIPTION:2024\, MPA Rating: NR\nIsrael\, Hebrew with English subtitles\nAdir Miller\, Doron Paz\, Yoav Paz\nFeature: 117 minutes \nWhat begins as a simple\, almost casual discovery quickly becomes something far more profound. In this acclaimed Israeli drama (with humor!)\, a single object—a ring—unlocks a buried family story\, forcing its present-day owner to confront questions of memory\, inheritance\, and moral responsibility. Starring beloved Israeli actor Adir Miller\, The Ring moves fluidly between past and present\, exploring how the legacy of the Holocaust continues to shape lives generations later. As long-held truths surface\, the film asks what we owe to the past—and to each other—when history suddenly becomes personal. By turns poignant\, surprising\, and deeply human\, The Ring is a powerful reminder that history is never truly behind us. It lives in the objects we keep\, the stories we tell\, and the choices we make when we finally dare to look back. \nTrailer\n \nB&B Theatres Creve Coeur West Olive 10\nThis St. Louis Jewish Film Festival event is at B&B Theatres Creve Coeur West Olive 10\, a newly remodeled luxury entertainment center featuring 10 auditoriums with laser projection\, digital audio\, and heated electric reclining seats for an elevated viewing experience.

In the charming coming-of-age comedy Ethan Bloom\, Malina plays a well-meaning but increasingly bewildered father whose teenage son is preparing for his Bar Mitzvah…while secretly taking confirmation classes at the local Catholic church.

SUMMARY:Love\, Statistically Speaking – A St. Louis Jewish Film Festival Event

What begins as a comic whodunit slowly becomes something deeper\, as suspicion gives way to connection and shared grief opens the door to an unexpected bond.

SUMMARY:Eleanor The Great – A St. Louis Jewish Film Festival Event
DESCRIPTION:2025\, MPA Rating: PG-13\nUSA\, English\nScarlett Johansson\nFeature: 98 minutes \nThe perfect festival farewell\, Eleanor the Great marks Scarlett Johansson’s directorial debut and showcases a magnificent performance by June Squibb as a woman discovering that it’s never too late to begin again. After a devastating loss\, Eleanor Morgenstein\, 94\, leaves Florida for New York City\, where a chance friendship with a young student pulls her back into the world — and into a story she tells that begins to take on a life of its own. As humor and grief intertwine\, Eleanor is forced to confront memory\, truth\, and the complicated ways we carry the past. Wry\, tender\, and laugh-out-loud funny\, Eleanor the Great is a deeply human film about friendship\, aging\, and survival — one that leaves you smiling\, misty-eyed\, and wonderfully unsure whether your tears come from laughter or recognition. \nTrailer\n \nB&B Theatres Creve Coeur West Olive 10\nThis St. Louis Jewish Film Festival event is at B&B Theatres Creve Coeur West Olive 10\, a newly remodeled luxury entertainment center featuring 10 auditoriums with laser projection\, digital audio\, and heated electric reclining seats for an elevated viewing experience.

SUMMARY:Hidden History: A Memoir of Survival in Paris – An NJT "Prayer for the French Republic" Special Experience
DESCRIPTION:Join NJT for a conversation with Dr. Dorian Stuber about the book Rue Ordener\, Rue Labat\, which recounts philosopher Sarah Kofman’s experience hiding from the Nazis during World War II—a story set in similar circumstances as NJT’s production of Prayer for the French Republic. \nPhilosopher Sarah Kofman was born in Paris in 1934\, five years after her parents emigrated to France from Poland. She was only a child when her father\, a rabbi\, was arrested and deported to Auschwitz in July 1942. For the rest of the war\, Kofman and her mother found shelter with a former neighbor. Many years later\, Kofman wrote a memoir of her wartime experiences\, describing how she was saved—but also abused—by the non-Jewish woman she would come to call Mémé. The story is both unique to Kofman and representative of the French Jewish experience during WWII. \nThe event will be led by Dr. Dorian Stuber\, Emeritus Professor at Hendrix College and member of the Missouri Holocaust Education and Awareness Commission. \nParticipants are encouraged\, but not expected\, to read the book beforehand. Books are available through the Kaplan Feldman Holocaust Museum gift shop. \nSpecial thanks to the Rubin and Gloria Feldman Family Educational Institute for its support of NJT events that are designed to provide context for the production of Prayer for the French Republic. \nRegister
