SUMMARY:Films Worth Talking About Even If Difficult: 'Akira'
DESCRIPTION:Considered the most influential feature-length anime film ever made\, Akira has had an extraordinary impact on popular culture and effectively advanced anime and Japanese popular culture worldwide. The film unflinchingly takes on challenging topics pertaining to political corruption\, social unrest\, the dangers of unchecked power\, and the misuse of technology\, as well as themes of individuals exploring identity\, power\, friendship\, and the effects of their decisions. Akira powerfully demonstrated the potential of animation to address complicated and mature themes and became a cultural phenomenon\, inspiring countless films and anime for almost four decades after its release. \nThe event will include the film screening itself and an opportunity to hear from faculty and staff about the challenging civic and societal topics that Akira raises. Pizza will be available for attendees.

SUMMARY:Filming Words–Nurith Aviv Retrospective: Screenings and Conversations\, Day 1
DESCRIPTION:A screening of Translating (2011)\, with Nurith Aviv in conversation with Aviya Kushner\, Jacques Lezra\, and James Redfield \nCo-sponsored by Fordham’s Center for Jewish Studies\, Centro Primo Levi\, and Fordham’s Center on Religion and Culture \nIn this Babelic film\, translators from different corners of the world speak in their own tongues\, recounting their encounters with Hebrew literature across the centuries—from the Midrash and medieval poetry to contemporary fiction. They speak with fervor\, revealing how translation can be an act of both devotion and defiance\, sometimes bending the very structures of their own languages to carry across the soul of another. \nTickets for all four events in this series are free for Fordham University’s and Centro Primo Levi’s guests who register by April 15. Starting on April 16th\, tickets will be available for sale for $20 or $10 (students and seniors discount). \nNurith Aviv (Tel Aviv\, Mandatory Palestine\, 1945) has directed ​​18 documentary films. Her works investigate language and move lyrically through the landscapes\, collective myths\, and intimate narratives that shape humans’ ways of being together. The first woman to be a director of photography in France\, she has shot a hundred fiction and documentary films with directors such as Agnès Varda\, Amos Gitai\, René Allio\, and Jacques Doillon. She has received important prizes\, including the Edouard Glissant Prize (2009) and the Grand Prix de l’Académie française (2019). Her works have been shown in multiple retrospectives in Paris\, including a week-long one last month. She has been the subject of a movie (Woman with a Camera by Zohar Behrendt\, 2023) and now of a book (Filmer la Parole\, 2025). \nThis tribute\, the fruit of a collaboration between the Fordham University Center for Jewish Studies\, the Primo Levi Center\, and the Fordham Center on Religious and Culture\, is the first of its kind in New York City. It will gather Aviv’s long-time fans\, newcomers to her work\, and lovers of language from all backgrounds to celebrate through images and words this exceptional director as she turns 80.

Then\, by force of national and political will\, it was reborn as a language of daily life in the early 20th century. Writers and artists from Israel explore their intimate\, often conflicted relationship with Hebrew’s layered past\, reflecting on what has been forgotten or repressed and what needs to resurface. Their confessions overlap and part\, as the film allows no single version of this history prevails. \nTickets for all four events in this series are free for Fordham University’s and Centro Primo Levi’s guests who register by April 15. Starting on April 16th\, tickets will be available for sale for $20 or $10 (students and seniors discount). \nNurith Aviv (Tel Aviv\, Mandatory Palestine\, 1945) has directed ​​18 documentary films. Her works investigate language and move lyrically through the landscapes\, collective myths\, and intimate narratives that shape humans’ ways of being together. The first woman to be a director of photography in France\, she has shot a hundred fiction and documentary films with directors such as Agnès Varda\, Amos Gitai\, René Allio\, and Jacques Doillon. She has received important prizes\, including the Edouard Glissant Prize (2009) and the Grand Prix de l’Académie française (2019).

SUMMARY:Filming Words – Nurith Aviv: Screenings and Conversations\, Day 3
DESCRIPTION:A screening of Words That Remain (2022​) and Bruly Bouabré’s Alphabet (2005) with Nurith Aviv in conversation with Gil Anidjar\, Yemane Demissie\, Cynthia Madansky\, James Redfield\, and Moulie Vidas\nCo-sponsored by Fordham’s Center for Jewish Studies\, Centro Primo Levi\, and Fordham’s Center on Religion and Culture \nWords That Remain  (2022)\nWhat is a mother tongue? In this film six voices call forth memories of the languages that shaped their childhoods: Judaeo-Spanish\, Judaeo-Arabic\, and Judaeo-Persian—each infused with lexical elements of Hebrew and written in the Hebrew script. Though these languages are fading\, their melodies\, cadences\, and intonations linger\, shaping the consciousnesses of those who once heard them in their homes. \nBruly Bouabré’s Alphabet (2005)\nWhat remains of a language when no one is left to speak it? In the Ivory Coast\, some 600\,000 Bété people communicate mainly in a language that is absent from their schools\, overshadowed by the dominance of French. In the 1950s\, artist Frédéric Bruly Bouabré sought to change that. He devised hundreds of pictograms\, drawn from the simple syllables of Bété\, to help his people claim the written word. Now in old age\, he reflects on his mission: to craft an African script born from the images of daily life\, preserving in symbols what speech alone could not. \nNurith Aviv (Tel Aviv\, Mandatory Palestine\, 1945) has directed ​​18 documentary films.

SUMMARY:Filming Words – Nurith Aviv: Screenings and Conversations\, Day 4
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a screening of From Language to Language (2004) and Allenby\, Passage (2001) with Nurith Aviv in conversation with Gil Anidjar\, Yemane Demissie\, Cynthia Madansky\, and Richard Peña \nCo-sponsored by Fordham’s Center for Jewish Studies\, Centro Primo Levi\, and Fordham’s Center on Religion and Culture \nThe transformation of Hebrew from a language set apart to the common speech of a nation happened within a handful of decades. Yet this triumph came at a cost: the erasure\, sometimes violent\, of the languages that once lived in its speakers’ minds and mouths. From Language to Language (2004) gathers a chorus of exiles of language—poets\, writers\, singers\, and actors—who search for new roots as they remain wooed by the echoes of the past.   \nIn Allenby\, Passage (2001)\, an oneiric video essay\, the director retraces her father’s steps along a passage of Allenby Street in Tel Aviv\, where he once bought his photographic equipment. Amid the rustling of chatter rising from the street\, the camera turns its gaze to fleeting details\, intercepted in their evanescence. As Aviv once described her work as a cinematographer\, this film attempts to capture the “beats of time.” \nNurith Aviv (Tel Aviv\, Mandatory Palestine\, 1945) has directed ​​18 documentary films. Her works investigate language and move lyrically through the landscapes\, collective myths\, and intimate narratives that shape humans’ ways of being together. The first woman to be a director of photography in France\, she has shot a hundred fiction and documentary films with directors such as Agnès Varda\, Amos Gitai\, René Allio\, and Jacques Doillon.

SUMMARY:Adam Farkas\, “Oral Histories of the Soviet Jewish Diaspora in the US\, 1973 – 1980”
DESCRIPTION:Between 1973 and 1980\, over 65\,000 Soviet Jews\, often referred to as “dropouts\,” immigrated to the United States. While they are often treated as a single demographic group\, these Soviet Jews represented surprising diversity profiles across distinct waves of migration. Studying this population without considering their day-to-day experiences in the Soviet Union and the US misses important divergences in identity transformation\, cultural adaptation\, and assimilation practices. Through detailed oral history analysis\, the presentation examines the cultural adaptations and disparities encountered during their journey\, including education\, cultural dynamics\, political perspectives\, and community building. It investigates how these challenges influenced the immigration experience for Soviet Jewish immigrants in the United States versus their experiences in the Soviet Union. The study also looks at how adaptation to American culture contributed to evolving identities and how the preservation or rejection of Russian and Jewish heritage shaped self-perception. \nAdam Farkas holds a PhD in History from Budapest\, Hungary. After defending his dissertation\, he was a visiting scholar at UC Berkeley. He is currently a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Toronto\, where his research focuses on the oral histories and everyday life of Soviet Jewish émigrés in the 1970s. \nLunch will be served.
