SUPERMENSCH: THE LEGEND OF SHEP GORDON

The 22nd Portland Jewish Film Festival taking place June 15 to 29, 2014, will host 17 features at this year including: THE LAST OF THE UNJUST, Claude Lanzmann’s follow-up to SHOAH, SUPERMENSCH: THE LEGEND OF SHEP GORDON, the directorial debut of Mike Meyers (AUSTIN POWERS, WAYNE’S WORLD), the Opening Night selection FRIENDS FROM FRANCE, a Cold War-era thriller set behind the Iron Curtain, THE WONDERS, a neo-noir tracking one graffiti artist’s descent into a world of crime, and many other fine selections.

The 22nd Portland Jewish Film Festival is produced by the Northwest Film Center and co-presented with the Institute for Judaic Studies.  While the Festival specifically celebrates the diversity of Jewish history, culture, and identity, these films and the stories they tell also resonate beyond their settings and speak to experiences and issues that confront our common humanity.
