Pini on the Roof

GesherEU’s very own Pini Brown is the star of a brand new documentary short film, which will be shown at the UK Jewish Film Festival this November.

‘Pini on the Roof’ follows Yiddish Blues singer Pini, who left the Hasidic community in Stamford Hill five years ago and is now a mini-celebrity in the hipster neighbourhood next door. In this humorous and moving day-in-the-life portrait, he navigates belonging in the secular world while not rejecting where he came from.

The film was a winner of the Dangoor UK Jewish Film Short Docs Fund this year, a project which aims to document modern-day British Jewish life in a series of creative and original four-minute documentaries.

It will be premiering at the Finchley Phoenix at 8pm on Tuesday 12th November (https://ukjewishfilm.org/event/dangoor-short-doc-fund-premieres/), and there will also be screenings in Manchester, Birmingham, Bath, Brighton, Glasgow, Leeds, Liverpool, and Oxford.
