Sephardic Film Fest: 24 Days

January 12, 2016

24 Days. A tense and timely thriller, 24 Days tells the heart-breaking true story of the 2006 kidnapping of 23-year old Ilan Halimi from his Paris suburb by a group calling themselves “The Gang of Barbarians”. This film follows a massive police manhunt and nightmarish ordeal as the clock runs against time. A film of racial tension and anti-Semitism that continues to make headlines in France in these times of terrorism.
