“Coexistence, My Ass”: MV Summer Institute Film Series

When

August 10, 2025    
7:30 pm - 9:30 pm

Jewish-Israeli-Iranian comedian Noam Shuster Eliassi’s one woman show tackles the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. She embarks on a passionate, hopeful mission to both entertain and explore Jewish-Palestinian coexistence. She addresses the messiness of complex identities and introduces the power of laughter into heartbreakingly difficult issues of conflict. She finds her themes of peace and equal rights upended by the Oct 7 attack and Gaza war.
