Film: Violins in Wartime

Venue: Temple Israel

Time: 7:00PM

Violins have had a unique narrative throughout Jewish history. Violin-maker Amnon Weinstein (and the visionary for the Violins of Hope project), was in the midst of planning an international masters course for young violinists when the Second Lebanon War breaks out in 2006. The film captures intimate moments of struggle with fear and trauma, while reflecting on the power of music as a symbol of sanity in a time of war.
