Film Screening: ‘Between the Temples’ with Director Nathan Silver

A Q&A with the director, Nathan Silver, follows the screening.

In Between the Temples, Ben (Jason Schwartzman) is a 40-something cantor losing his voice and possibly his faith. Struggling to meet the expectations of his rabbi, congregation, and not one but two Jewish mothers (Caroline Aaron and Dolly De Leon), Ben finds his world turned upside down when his grade school music teacher (Carol Kane) re-enters his life as an adult bat mitzvah student. This warm and anxious comedy from prolific writer/director Nathan Silver explores the complexities of belief, connection, and what it means to be a real mensch.

Nathan Silver is an American independent filmmaker working out of New York City. He released eight consecutive feature films in as many years. His style includes working primarily with friends and family as actors in his films. He is best known for his films Thirst Street, The Great Pretender, and the television series Cutting My Mother.
