The Jewish Center & Federation Film Screening:
The JCF will offer a free, in-home screening of the feature film Red Cow from October 31 through November 2. Red Cow is a 2018 film from Israel. The title plays on the Biblical commandment concerning the “red heifer” (in many translations), but it also refers to 17-year-old, red-haired Benny, who feels as trapped as her father’s treasured calf. Benny’s mother died giving birth to her, and she grew up alone with her caring yet patriarchal father. Home viewing will be available from 10:00 p.m. on Saturday, October 31, through 10:00 p.m. on Monday, November 2. It’s in Hebrew with English subtitles and runs about 90 minutes.
