Q&A with award-winning screenwriter and Berkshire resident Stephen Glantz to follow the screening.
Following our sold-out screening of WUNDERKINDER, and in observance of Yom HaShoah (Holocaust Remembrance Day), BIFF presents a special screening of TO LIFE (AUF DAS LEBEN!).
Originally shown at BIFF in 2015, this moving film follows the intertwined lives of Ruth, an aging cabaret singer, and Jonas, a young man facing a terminal illness. Though separated by generations and shaped by vastly different life experiences, the two form an unexpected and profound bond—giving one another renewed purpose and a reason to live.
Join us for this powerful and life-affirming film, followed by a conversation with award-winning screenwriter and Berkshire resident Stephen Glantz.
