No one knows his real name; he is only known as Mr. Shoshani. He was an eternal nomad and enigmatic genius who attracted disciples such as Nobel Prize winner Elie Wiesel and renowned philosopher Emmanuel Levinas. With no family or friends, sleeping on park benches, taking on multiple names and identities, he acquired a mythological status. This film is a search for Mr. Shoshani.

Director Michael Grynszpan will join us after the film for a Q&A.

Doors will open 30 minutes before showtime.
