Jewish Film Festival: "A Real Pain" (2024) In-Person
All films are free. Sponsored by Temple Beth El of Williamsburg, Virginia
Nov. 2: A Real Pain (2024) R
Cousins David (Jesse Eisenberg) and Benji (Kieran Culkin) travel to Poland after their grandmother’s death to join a Jewish heritage tour. While David is steady and responsible, Benji is restless and reckless, and their contrasting personalities clash as they visit sites tied to their family’s Holocaust history, including the Majdanek concentration camp. Blending humor with deep emotional resonance, the film explores how grief, memory, and inherited trauma shape identity, while also examining the complicated bonds of family and the struggle to find meaning in pain. 1hr 30min
