The Best of the Fest from this season's San Francisco Jewish Film Festival is coming to the Osher Marin JCC with three must-see films this February.

​

First up on Thursday, February 1st is My Neighbor Adolf. In this dark comedy, cranky and and misanthropic, Marek Polsky has survived the war and the camps. He's now resettled in a South American village, where he seems content to tend his roses, play chess games in his head, and mutter to himself. But it’s 1960, Adolf Eichmann has just been seized in Argentina, and now Polsky is suspiciously eyeing the secretive German-speaking elderly man who has moved in next door. It’s alarming: The man bears an uncanny resemblance to Adolf Hitler. Not only that, this ostensible neighbor “Herzog” has a German shepherd, a penchant for painting, an expansionist agenda, and a ferocious temper. When no one takes Polsky’s suspicions seriously, he decides to take matters into his own hands, daring to establish a wary acquaintanceship with the neighbor in order to gain positive proof of Herzog’s true, monstrous identity. They begin a cat and mouse game of trying to get to know eachother, finding out who the other really is, and perhaps even becoming friends.
