Final film in the Sephardic Winter Film Series:
God’s Slave. A riveting story based on actual events of a 1994 bombing in Buenos Aires. This is a cat-and-mouse story of a deadly showdown between terrorists and an Israeli special agent. A man trained since childhood to be a suicide bomber attempts to execute a bombing at a synagogue. An Israeli agent works to stop the plot and the story ends with violent and unexpected consequences. Never doubt the power of free will in a human being.
Spanish with English Subtitles, 91 minutes, Production by Joel Schneider. Speaker: Ivonne Saed
Admission & Sephardic dessert are FREE.
Sponsors: Jewish Federation of Greater Portland, National Council of Synagogue Youth (NCSY), Albert J. & Esther Menashe, Richard & Judi Matza, Charles & Jo Levy, Ron & Pam Sidis, Renee Ferrera
