Fanny Zelshinsky is a sophisticated young artist from Warsaw’s Jewish elite\, determined to earn recognition for her work while questioning the future she has planned for herself. Zosia Dror has fled violence in her small shtetl and joined a youth movement dedicated to social equality and creating a Jewish homeland. \nWhen their beloved photography professor mysteriously disappears\, the two women – seemingly unlikely allies – join forces to find her. As antisemitism intensifies around them\, their search becomes increasingly dangerous. \nIn conversation with Shelley Sackett\, member of the Boston Theater Critics Association\, freelance journalist\, divorce mediator\, and former editor of Jewish Journal. \nIncludes book sale\, signing and light refreshments. \n								\n									Get Tickets\n					 \nCommunity Partner:
