Jewish Movies Monthly: History of the World, Part I

Once a month we gather for Jewish Movies Monthly – a film series filled with humor, music, and powerful stories about identity, survival, love, and tradition. The series is open to everyone, regardless of background or prior knowledge, and invites both laughter, reflection, and community.

This time we are screening History of the World, Part I (1981), where Mel Brooks unfolds his characteristic satirical style in a series of outrageous historical sketches. From Moses to the French Revolution and all the way to the Wild West, the film offers a whirlwind of absurd tales that together form one big comedy about human history.

The screening is hosted in collaboration with Shir Hatzafon Synagogue, and popcorn will be available for purchase during the film.
