Sabbath Queen
2025-05-18 19:00 - 21:00 | Cinema Salem, 1 East India Square Mall, Salem, MA, 01945, United States
Sabbath Queen, a feature documentary filmed over 21 years by the beloved filmmaker Sandi DuBowski (Trembling Before G-d), follows Rabbi Amichai Lau-Lavie’s epic journey as the dynastic heir of 38 generations of Orthodox rabbis including the Chief Rabbis of Israel. He is torn between rejecting and embracing his destiny and becomes a drag-queen rebel, a queer bio-dad and the founder of Lab/Shul—an everybody-friendly, God-optional, artist-driven, pop-up experimental congregation. The film interrogates what Jewish survival means in a difficult rapidly changing 21st century.

The Blond Boy from the Casbah
2025-05-20 13:00 - 15:00 | Cinema Salem, 1 East India Square Mall, Salem, MA, 01945, United States
A celebrated filmmaker returns to Algiers with his young son in a bittersweet semi-autobiographical dramedy, reflecting on the loss of his multicultural community during the Algerian War of Independence. Having emigrated to France with his family years earlier, Antoine (Léo Campion) reconnects with his roots in a neighborhood of Jews, Muslims, and Christians. Nostalgic memories flood back—school, friends, his Sephardic upbringing, and his early fascination with cinema—as he presents his new film, an account of his childhood shaped by the unrest that ultimately forced them to flee. As father and son bond over shared history, this sentimental sojourn, adapted from Alexandre Arcady’s memoir, is brought to life on the vibrant streets of Algiers, evoking a bygone time.

Midas Man
2025-05-21 19:00 - 21:00 | Cinema Salem, 1 East India Square Mall, Salem, MA, 01945, United States
MIDAS MAN tells the “rip-roaring” true story of the “Fifth Beatle” – The Beatles’ legendary manager Brian Epstein (in a star-making turn by Jacob Fortune-Lloyd, The Queen’s Gambit), co-starring Emily Watson, Eddie Marsan, Eddie Izzard and Jay Leno.
On a cold night in 1961, a young record store owner walked into Liverpool’s Cavern Club and discovered the greatest pop act the music world would ever see. So begins the story of Brian Epstein, the man who found The Beatles.
Featuring a star-making performance by Jacob Fortune-Lloyd ( The Queen’s Gambit) as Epstein, as well as the familiar faces of Emily Watson, Eddie Marsan, Jay Leno and Eddie Izzard, this funny, thrilling and occasionally heartbreaking film charts Epstein’s life as he guides the scrappy four-piece band’s rise from dingy bars to the hallowed halls of The Ed Sullivan Show and beyond—a story of one man’s radical faith in talent and the sacrifices he made to champion it.
This film is generously sponsored by Sharon and Howard Rich.
