YOM HASHOAH COMMEMORATION
Great Neck Synagogue Premier of
FOUR SEASONS LODGE
Award winning documentary that follows the lives of holocaust survivors each summer at their beloved bungalow colony as they celebrate their survival.
Two survivors featured in the movie will be on hand to answer questions after the screening.

Brief Synopsis
In an inspiring and startlingly funny documentary,
FOUR SEASONS LODGE follows a group of Holocaust
survivors during what might be their final summer
together at a bungalow colony in the Catskill Mountains.
Directed by New York Times journalist Andrew Jacobs,
with beautiful cinematography by a team of filmmakers
including Albert Maysles, the verite film explores the
power of friendship and the drive to find joy despite
painful memories. It is a counterintuitive Holocaust
documentary: a fusion of ribald humor, stories of
unimaginable loss, the last of the Borscht Belt crooners,
and a family made entirely of friends and lovers. The
characters dance, flirt, and fight as the fate of their
community hangs in the balance.
