Jewish Film Festival: Commie Camp
COMMIE CAMP: Sunday, March 2, 5:00 pm at Alaska Coffee Roasting, Geist Rd.
In 2012, right-wing radio host Rush Limbaugh publicized an expose by the libertarian organization Americans for Limited Government: President Obama’s nominee to head the Bureau of Labor Statistics had sent her kids to a Jewish summer camp with ‘Communist roots’ which ‘indoctrinates’ its campers with ‘extremist’ ideology. Comedian and filmmaker Katie Halper went to that very camp, Camp Kinderland, as did her mother and grandmother. Have they been brainwashed? Are the children attending camp today in danger? If so, can they be saved? There’s only one-way to find out–by going back to camp. Following four nine-years-olds
Commie Camp reveals what really goes on at Kinderland. We watch the children learn how to debate problems facing the world, commemorate the Holocaust, Hiroshima and Nagasaki, play World Peace Olympics, and have the times of their lives!

Jewish Film Festival: When Comedy Went To School
WHEN COMEDY WENT TO SCHOOL: Sunday, February 23, 5:00 pm at the Alaska Coffee Roasting, Geist Rd.
Why are there so many Jewish comedians? When Comedy Went To School answers this question with an entertaining portrait of this country's greatest comics – the generation that includes the likes of Jerry Lewis, Sid Caesar, Jackie Mason, Mort Sahl, and Jerry Stiller, all of whom make appearances, telling jokes and telling their stories. The answer is also found in upstate New York's Catskill Mountains, aka the Borscht Belt, where Jewish immigrants transformed lush farmland into the 20th century's largest resort complex. Those Catskill hotels and bungalow colonies provided the setting for a remarkable group of young Jewish-American comedians to hone their craft and become worldwide legends. It was truly When Comedy Went to School. Guest speaker Rabbi Dov Gartenberg of Juneau will lead a discussion following the film.
