On October 19, please join us for a moving event that begins with the one-hour film Violins of Hope: Strings of the Holocaust. Directed by Lance K. Shultz and narrated by Academy Award winner Adrian Brody, the documentary brings to life the stories of these violins through the Weinsteins’ efforts to honor the memory of the musicians who played them. After the screening, there will be a live conversation with PSO Maestro Eckart Preu, Concertmaster Charles Dimmick, and luthier Avshi Weinstein, followed by a wine and passed hors d'oeuvres reception in the PMA's Sculpture Garden or foyer outside the theater.
The screening, conversation, and reception will be held at the Portland Museum of Art. The event will be on October 19th, 2022, at 6:00 PM. Tickets are $36.
The MJFF Violins of Hope event is a collaboration between the Maine Jewish Film Festival and the Portland Symphony Orchestra, with the support and partnership of the Consulate General of Israel to New England.
