CBS Film Series Presents ‘Neighbours’  

The CBS Film Series at Congregation Beth Shalom presents “Neighbours,” winner of the San Francisco Film Critics Jury Prize. In a little village on the Syrian-Turkish border in the early 1980s, Sero, a 6-year old Kurdish boy, experiences his first year in school. A new teacher arrives with the goal of making Arabic comrades out of the Kurdish children. He uses the rod to forbid the Kurdish language and preaches hate of the Zionist enemy, the Jews. The lessons confuse and upset Sero because his long-time neighbors are a lovable Jewish family.  Admission $5 per person, which includes popcorn and concessions. Raffle tickets will be sold for $1 for a chance to win a $25 gift card. RSVP to [email protected] or 661-254-2411.
