Sunday, October 11th at 7 PM The Charlotte Jewish Film Festival Presents YidLife Crisis: SWEDISHKAYT Live! at Temple Israel at 7 PM with a dessert reception following the film.
Jamie Elman and Eli Batalion travelled to the last place on earth they’d expect YIDDISH to be a protected minority language: Sweden(?!), inspiring their funny and fascinating chronicle of the Swedish Jewish community, SWEDISHKAYT: YidLife Crisis in Stockholm. In this special engagement, the boychiks from Montreal will not just accompany the film but perform their patented comedy duo shtik and close out the evening with live music. Expect to learn, laugh, and be inspired… not necessarily in that order.
Swedishkayt Live! Is sponsored by Foundation for the Charlotte Jewish Community
Opening Night SWEDISHKAYT: YidLife Crisis in Stockholm is included in the All-Festival Pass if purchased for the 2026 CJFF!
Featuring a special live performance by YidLife Crisis (Eli Batalion and Jamie Elman) to bring some LIVE SHTIK to the Carolina Theatre
