Yiddish double

THE Yiddish Film Club presents two classic movies on Sunday at the London Jewish Cultural Centre.
Metallic Blues, which was featured at last year’s Jewish Film Festival, is an Israeli black comedy about two car salesmen trying to flog a stretch limo to a classic car company based in Germany. It is a dark yet approachable film which has won plaudits at a number of international festivals.
Also screening is Grine Felder, the 1937 adaptation by Peretz Hirschbein, a writer who studied the drift from small rural communities in eastern Europe to cities.
It tells the story of a student who falls for a simple village girl.
