A String of Pearls
A String of Pearls: Screening
A String of Pearls: The Small Miracles of Charles Middleberg, is a moving collection of storytelling gems... or pearls, the
extraordinary childhood memories of a survivor now in his nineties. With charm, passion, wit and exceptionally sharp recall, you will be
drawn into Charles' childhood stories based in WWII occupied Paris. One viewer described feeling emotions she'd never felt before...
The screening of 39 minutes in length will be followed by a presentation from the filmmaker/director of Cyclorama Films himself, Joe
Brin. You will also have a chance to look at Joe Brin's new book
BUOYANT: A Child's Journey of Survival. The book
is based on A String of Pearls. Copies will be on hand for signing at the screening.
Cyclorama Films is a nonprofit established to preserve Jewish life stories on film, promoting greater understanding between people, Jewish and non-Jewish
