Description

Ora wants to better understand her aging grandfather before it's too late. When she travels to Hungary to see if she can unlock the mysteries of his defense mechanisms, she finds a world left behind that illuminates a deep appreciation for life as it is now.

The first screening will be followed by a Q&A with director Ora DeKornfeld.

All in-person screening venues provide sound amplification headphones upon request with venue management. IFC Center can also provide a T-Coil loop for compatible devices.
