Chai High: Coming events

Brenda Hyman

April 4, 2017 – 7:00 p.m. – Capri Room – Movie and Popcorn Night! The Boy In The Striped Pajamas (2008) with Vera Farmiga, David Thewlis and Asa Butterfield. Based on the best seller novel by John Boyne, the movie is the tale of a curious eight-year-old boy Bruno. Bored in his new home, Bruno wanders off into the nearby woods where he discovers an unusual fence, behind which is a boy strangely dressed in “black and white pajamas.” Bruno embarks on a most unusual friendship with the boy; one that proves both ordinary and remarkable.
