July 24 on PBS: 2 Jewish Docs

On Monday, July 24, PBS will be airing two Jewish documentaries, both of which are Holocaust related.

Shalom Italia

“Three Italian Jewish brothers set off on a journey through Tuscany, in search of a cave where they hid as children to escape the Nazis. Their quest, full of humor, food and Tuscan landscapes, straddles the boundary between history and myth—a profound, funny, and endearing exploration of individual and communal memory.”

Joe’s Violin

“A donated musical instrument forges an improbable friendship. 91-year-old Holocaust survivor Joe Feingold and 12-year-old Bronx school girl Brianna Perez show how the power of music can bring light in the darkest of times, and how a small act can have a significant impact.” 

Tune in at 10:00 PM for what will surely be an entertaining experience.
