SUMMARY:Chicago Public Library Event -  YIVO presents Divan
DESCRIPTION:<p>Filmmaker Pearl Gluck will introduce and give a Q&amp;A for her film Divan. Unlike the more devout women in her large Hasidic family, Pearl Gluck finished college, began work on a doctorate in European Studies, and received a Fulbright Fellowship to collect the oral histories of Yiddish-speakers in Eastern Europe.&nbsp;To molify&nbsp;her father,&nbsp;who&nbsp;thinks she&rsquo;s making all the wrong choices,&nbsp; she makes a promise: while in Europe she will search for a precious heirloom, a divan that according to family legend served as the sleeping place for generations of prominent traveling rabbis. Pearl has a whimsical touch, and she counterpoints the travel scenes with the voices of Gen-Xers like herself who are also struggling to find a balance between the religious and the secular.&nbsp;With a fabulous soundtrack by&nbsp; Frank London of The Klezmatics. In Hungarian, Yiddish, and English with English subtitles. 77 minutes.</p>
