Baltimore Jewish Film Festival Opens with The Jewish Cardinal
The 26th annual William and Irene Weinberg Family Baltimore Jewish Film Festival opens with the Baltimore premiere of The Jewish Cardinal, which tells the amazing true story of Jean-Marie Lustiger, the son of Polish-Jewish immigrants. Lustiger maintained his cultural identity as a Jew even after converting to Catholicism at a young age, and later joining the priesthood.

This year’s film festival runs through April 10. All movies will be held at the Gordon Center for Performing Arts, 3506 Gwynnbrook Avenue, in Owings Mills. Learn more and purchase tickets at http://www.jcc.org/gordon-center/baltimore-jewish-film-festival/.
