“When Masha attempts to follow her Russian grandmother’s Borscht recipe, her ancestors from all corners of Eastern Europe, materialise from the soup to claim it as their own. An argument over the most authentic recipe soon escalates out of control.” 🥣🩸

The shoot is a big set build and all special effects are in camera 🎥

🎥Introducing JxJ PASSPORT - A series that brings the world to your doorstep, celebrating cultural highlights and the best of Jewish art – one country at a time.

This March we celebrate the Ukrainian spirit of resistance, a groundbreaking tradition of filmmaking, and the outpouring of creative energy that shines through ongoing conflict. JOIN US ON OUR JOURNEY! Tix at jxjdc.org.
Check out our exciting lineup:

SECOND WIND | Dir. Masha Kondakova
Screening March 5, 7:00 PM in partnership with ReelAbilities.
Four amputee soldiers and a severely wounded female sniper embark on an awe-inspiring expedition to climb Mount Kilimanjaro- overcoming pain, rethinking the trauma of war, and finding power in brotherhood.

SHTTL | Dir. Ady Walker
Screening March 7 & 8, 7:00 PM
In one continuous shot, SHTTL shows the lives, loves, and inner conflicts within a Yiddish speaking shtetl on the border between Ukraine and Poland – one day before the Nazi invasion of the Soviet Union.

MAN WITH A MOVIE CAMERA | Dir. Dziga Vertov
Screening March 14 & 15, 7:00 PM
A landmark of silent cinema, this is one of the most influential films ever made. Rejecting plot, actors, and traditional storytelling, the film presents a dynamic, non-linear portrait of everyday life in Soviet cities. This special screening features The ANVIL ORCHESTRA performing their original score live.

UKRANIAN SHORTS
March 26 & 28, 7:00 PM`
This program brings together a suite of intimate films. From dark humor and raw autobiography, these shorts trace how personal histories surface in moments of crisis.

-CAN YOU HEAR ME? | Dr. Anastazja Naumenko
-HEART HUG | Dir. Nika Zhukova

FILM AND HOPE ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ~ The [Prime]Times

Last Wednesday we welcomed a full house to our @primetime.network inaugural @picturehousecentral #rePRESENT event, uniting unrepresented underrepresented filmmakers with top agents looking to meet with new voices and expand their books.

Huge thank you to all the filmmakers who submitted their work from around the world, to the THIRTY agents from FOURTEEN agencies who got involved with the initiative - making it imo the highest concentration of agents in one room I’ve ever seen - to Ellie, Salomé, Chris, Jessica and the entire team @picturehousecentral for helping me bring my vision to life, to @sarah.teh.dop for capturing the day so dynamically and to my bestie @adriantauss @swisschocolatepictures for transforming my holding image design into an icon worthy of the big screen.

This initiative has been a labour of love materialising over the last six months, and you can see from my face[s] how much joy I felt being there in the room seeing it come to life and watching all these new connections taking place. With multiple filmmakers securing multiple agent meetings following the event, it was a huge success and the beginning of some exciting new relationships, also between fellow filmmakers.

God knows I love talking, but action is really where my heart’s at. Here’s to the next one! ✨

AND THAT’S A WRAP ON OUR INAUGURAL re:PRESENT INITIATIVE: Uniting underrepresented unrepresented filmmakers with top talent agents looking to meet with and represent these voices ✨

We had a full house and 30 agents sign up to the event and to review our digital catalogue - thank you to everyone who turned up and who was involved in making it such a huge success!

With multiple agent meetings secured off the back of this curated event, we can see the need for this level of bespoke initiative to happen again as it has led to tangible actions & outcomes for filmmakers and agents and so we couldn’t be happier!

Big shout out to our partner @picturehousecentral for helping us bring this vision to life - this will be the start of an ongoing collaboration we have no doubt.

And to all the filmmakers involved, those longlisted and those who submitted, thank you for showing us a window into your creative worlds - we can’t wait to see what happens next along your journeys ✨

HUGE THANK YOU to the queen that is @sarah.teh.dop for capturing the morning 🎥📸

Next up this treat: BORSCHT directed by @dokimenko 🩸

When Masha attempts to follow her Russian grandmother’s Borscht recipe, her ancestors hailing from all corners of Eastern Europe, materialise from the pot to claim the soup as their own. An argument over the most ethnically authentic recipe soon turns to bloody, all-out war.

[photo description: close up of borscht being thrown by an older woman. 2. Borscht hands coming up out of a pot].
