ONLINE2023 GPJFF Virtual Screening: Charlotte

Join the 27th Annual Greater Phoenix Jewish Film Festival virtually for an online screening of the animated biography film, Charlotte.

This film is only available to view virtually within Arizona.

CHARLOTTE

This beautiful, animated drama brings to life the true story of Charlotte Salomon, a young Jewish painter in Germany whose life was dramatically changed – and then cut short – after the Nazis came to power. Sensing imminent danger, Charlotte flees to France and begins frantically to paint her entire life, leaving behind the treasure of almost a thousand expressionist gouache paintings. The film features the voices of Keira Knightley, as well as Brenda Blethyn and Jim Broadbent.
