Join Frameline for two great LGBT-themed film programs at the 30th Annual San Francisco Jewish Film Festival! We're proud to partner with our downstairs neighbors in presenting the following two films:
.
Tuesday, July 27
9:15pm
Castro Theatre
Saturday, August 7
9:15pm
The Roda Theatre (at Berkeley Repertory Theatre)
Meet Socalled (aka Josh Dolgin): musician, arranger, rapper, producer, composer, magician, filmmaker and visual artist, to name just a few of his talents! Blasting through boundaries separating different cultures, eras and generations, Socalled creates a wholly unique sound combining klezmer, funk, soul and hip-hop. Not too shabby for a nice Jewish boy from Montreal. This is a dynamic, kaleidoscopic portrait of an iconoclastic artist at the peak of his powers.
Special Live Performance! Socalled and singer Katie Moore following Castro screening.

The Roda Theatre (at Berkeley Repertory Theatre)
Defying categorization, the geniuses of world music/klezmer fusion known as the Klezmatics have been breaking ground by continually redefining Jewish music for more than 20 years. Now they get their own movie: part concert film, part backstage drama, part affectionate lesson in remixing Yiddish culture, klezmer, gospel and Woody Guthrie. Their infectious concerts and on-camera candor make for a rousing behind-the-scenes documentary covering four up-and-down years in the life of the band. Join members of the band and the director for a festive Closing Night celebration at the Castro Theatre; Berkeley Opening Night features a post-film reception in the Roda courtyard.
