After visiting the Twin Cities three years ago\, we are honored that Dara Horn’s new book\, The Final Solution to the Jewish Question: A Love Story for the Living\, devotes significant attention to our work at JCRC. Her latest book explores how we bring Jewish history\, identity\, and civilization into classrooms—and why telling the Jewish story in its fullness is essential to confronting antisemitism. \n\nDara Horn is the award-winning author of seven books\, including the essay collection People Love Dead Jews: Reports from a Haunted Present (Norton 2021). Her eighth book\, The Final Solution to the Jewish Question: A Love Story for the Living (Simon & Schuster 2026) was released on September 1. \nShe is the recipient of three National Jewish Book Awards\, among other honors. Her books have been selected as New York Times Notable Books\, Booklist’s 25 Best Books of the Decade\, and San Francisco Chronicle’s Best Books of the Year\, and have been translated into thirteen languages. Her nonfiction work has appeared in The New York Times\, The Wall Street Journal\, The Washington Post\, The Atlantic\, Smithsonian\, Tablet\, and The Jewish Review of Books\, among many other publications. \nHorn received her doctorate in comparative literature from Harvard University\, studying Yiddish and Hebrew. She has taught courses in these subjects at Sarah Lawrence College and Yeshiva University\, and held the Gerald Weinstock Visiting Professorship in Jewish Studies at Harvard. She has lectured for audiences in hundreds of venues throughout North America\, Israel\, and Australia. Horn is also the founder and president of a new non-profit\, The Tell Institute\, devoted to educating the broader American public about Jewish civilization\, including in K-12 schools and other channels. \nShe lives in New Jersey with her husband and four children.

SUMMARY:TCJFF presents Documentary Shorts Block: A Higher Calling
DESCRIPTION:Three remarkable stories. Three very different lives. One question: What happens when you discover a responsibility larger than yourself? \nCall Me Papa: The Letters of Otto Frank\nMINNESOTA PREMIERE \nFrom Executive Producer Josh Gad\, this moving short documentary chronicles the remarkable post-WWII journey of Otto Frank\, the father of Anne Frank. Featuring testimony from his stepdaughter Eva Schloss\, a Holocaust survivor herself\, as well as some of the people whose lives were impacted by Anne’s words and Otto’s friendship\, the film reveals how Otto became a guiding light to thousands of young people around the globe who wrote to him\, seeking wisdom and hope. \nThis film is presented in partnership with the Jewish Community Relations Council of Minnesota and the Dakotas. Use promo code JCRC for 20% off tickets.  \nThe Baddest Speechwriter of All\nMINNESOTA PREMIERE \nWinner: 2026 Sundance Short Film Grand Jury Prize \nCo-directed by two-time Academy Award winner Ben Proudfoot and NBA champion Stephen Curry\, The Baddest Speechwriter of All introduces audiences to Clarence B. Jones\, Martin Luther King Jr.’s attorney\, adviser\, and speechwriter. With humor\, candor\, and hard-earned wisdom\, Jones reflects on the words he helped shape\, the coalitions he helped build\, and the personal cost of serving a movement that changed history. His story also illuminates the interracial and interfaith alliances at the heart of the Civil Rights Movement\, including the essential role Jewish activists played in the struggle for racial justice. \nThe ASSET\nMINNESOTA PREMIERE \n“When a national tragedy coupled with the dying wish of a protégé compels trauma surgeon\, Dr. Anna Goldenberg\, to bring elite trauma training to a warzone\, she embarks on a deeply personal mission that transcends bureaucracy\, borders\, and conflict.” \nTHE ASSET follows an American trauma surgeon\, Dr. Anna Goldenberg\, who answers that tragedy with a tool refined over decades in U.S. hospitals: The Advanced Surgical Skills for Exposure in Trauma — a cadaver-based course known simply as ASSET. She is motivated by her former protégé who is facing a battle of his own – metastatic cancer. \nBuilt around one intense day of surgical trauma training\, the film charts how a transfer of skill becomes a transfer of resolve\, across language\, borders and grief. Against enormous bureaucratic\, financial\, and personal obstacles\, Dr. Goldenberg brings Jewish\, Muslim\, Christian\, and Druze surgeons together to train side by side. As she races against time\, she discovers a deeper understanding of belonging\, responsibility\, and leading a life of service. \nRooted in the core ethos of medicine that every human life has value; the film offers an urgent and hopeful portrait of healing during a turbulent time. The ASSET is a hopeful story about mentorship\, collaboration\, and the universal commitment of healthcare professionals to save lives.
