The Northern Hills Men's Club is excited to be sponsoring a series of Jewish films to be shown by member Frank Kearly. Frank has a collection of documentary and fictional films, many gleaned from the catalogues of past Jewish film festivals, that he is able to share with our community. Many of the films in his collection are made by his son, Philip Shane, a documentary filmmaker. 

This months movie: "The Komediant"
