Autumn Sun 108 min • Argentina, 1996 Spanish w/subtitles Eduardo Mignogna, Director

What’s a reasonably happy, single, fifty-something Jewish woman to do when her conservative American brother, who thinks she’s engaged, decides to pay a visit? Clara places a personal ad! From there she meets Saul, who is actually Raul, and decidedly not Jewish. He’s thinking true love when Clara discovers his deception and quickly breaks it off. With her brother’s visit looming, she takes him back, and, in a series of touchingly hilarious scenes, schools him in yiddishkeit. A tender and whimsical story starring two of Argentina’s best known actors, Frederico Luppi and Norma Aleandro (The Official Story).
