Savannah Jewish Arts & Culture Festival.

Showing the film, Neighbors.

Film Description: Six-year-old Sero and his family live in a Kurdish community near the Syrian/Turkish border in the early 1980s. He’s extremely fond of his Jewish neighbors, but perplexed when a new teacher propagates fiery nationalism and anti-Semitism. Director Mano Khalil mines childhood experiences with a welcome sense of humor, while drawing tragic parallels with the plight of contemporary Syria.
