Overview
The Floaters (2024). Directed by Rachel Israel, 1 hr. 41 min., comedy, NR
This is the Jewish summer camp movie you’ve been waiting for! Freshly ousted from her rock band, Nomi takes a last-resort job from her best friend, Mara, at their childhood Jewish summer camp. As camp director Mara contends with a busted septic system, she tasks Nomi to supervise a group of outsider teens called the floaters. Framed through multigenerational perspectives, this offbeat comedy captures the rich diversity of a Jewish summer camp and explores the conflict between leaving one’s mark and building connection.
Please join us for a talkback after the screening with special guest producer Shai Korman.
