The Zig Zag Kid, a movie adaptation of famed Israeli author David Grossman’s book, kicks off the 25th Festival on Nov. 6 at the Coolidge Corner Theatre. The hero is the smart, sassy, 13-year-old son of a police inspector. After receiving a mysterious letter, the youth finds himself on an exciting, Hitchcockian mission to prove that he can be the best police inspector in the world, like his father. Directed by Flemish filmmaker Vincent Bal and starring Isabella Rossellini.
The Mid-Fest Event on Nov. 13 is the documentary Sukkah City, also screening at Coolidge Corner Theatre. Bringing the Sukkot tradition of Sukkah-making into the 21st century, author Joshua Foer challenges 12 architects and designers to construct artistic sukkahs to be placed in Manhattan’s Union Square to be judged and visited by the public. Infinite possibilities make for an incredible competition. In person: filmmaker Jason Hutt.
Closing Night features The Dewey Stone Connection: From Exodus to Independence on Nov. 17 at the Museum of Fine Arts. The documentary tells the incredible saga of Brockton, Mass. native Dewey Stone, an unsung hero for Israel.
