Back to All Events
Between the Stone and The Flower traces the odyssey of Floridian Genie Milgrom as she spends years trying to uncover her Jewish lineage. Both in Havana and raised and educated in Miami as a Roman Catholic from elementary to university, Milgrom always had a sense of disconnection from her surroundings. Her path to discover her Jewish background is convoluted and forces her to face the option of transitioning from her traditional Spanish Catholic family to Judaism despite the costs to familial relationships.
The film follows trails left by her ancestors and the need to pierce the veil of secrecy they left.
