Dear Safranim,
When considering your purchases for the coming year, please consider two wonderful new films that depict the richness of Jewish life. In both JUBANOS-THE JEWS OF CUBA and NEW HOMES we learn about two unique Jewish communities. In NEW HOMES http://www.ruthfilms.com/new-homes.html , we are introduced to a lovely and strangely-familiar Jewish community outside of Sao Paulo, Brazil. The film lovingly tells the history of Nilopolis which serves as a window into many contemporary Jewish towns and their experiences. One of the oldest and least known Jewish communities in the New World is explored in JUBANOS-THE JEWS OF CUBA http://www.ruthfilms.com/jubanos-the-jews-of-cuba.html. Although Cuba is not known for its religious practice, 1500 Jews remain in the country and are working hard to allow for continuity. Both films would be wonderful additions to your library collection. The purchase price for university libraries is $300 each and $115 for public libraries with a 10% discount on the purchase of both titles.
