"Less Than Kosher" Screening and Talkback

Presented by Oraynu Congregation for Humanistic Judaism at Al Green Theatre

Oraynu Congregation for Humanistic Judaism is pleased to present the acclaimed film "Less than  Kosher" -- starring Shaina Silver-Baird.

Saturday, Oct. 28 @ 7 pm 

At 20, Viv was a promising young singer. At 30, her failing music career has forced her back into her mother’s basement. But when this self proclaimed Bad Jew lands ass-backwards into a job as a Cantor at her family’s synagogue, she’s thrown into a wild ride of illicit affairs, drug trips, tense family drama, self discovery and some serious Jewish bops. A musical comedy cross between Shiva Baby and The Jazz Singer, this delightful story about modern Jewish life celebrates the importance of Jewish community while retaining one’s beliefs and values, and … it’s unabashedly set in Toronto.

Special Guests: Writers/Creators Shaina Silver-Baird and David Goldlist
