TCJFF Screening + Art Activity: The Zigzag Kid
FREE FAMILY FILM
Based on the bestselling novel by renowned Israeli author David Grossman, The Zigzag Kid is a delightful and visually rich adventure. Its hero is a smart, sassy 13-year-old boy on the brink of his Bar Mitzvah with a rich imagination and quite the knack for getting into trouble. This fast-paced, superbly written story is a mesmerizing mixture of genres: a detective story and coming-of-age tale with a dose of romance. Screen legend Isabella Rossellini plays an ingénue nightclub songstress and Burghart Klaussner (Goodbye, Lenin!) plays a criminal mastermind in this whimsical adventure that has wooed film-festival audiences around the world.
Following the film, join us for a hands-on collage workshop that invites teens to explore identity, imagination, and becoming. Using magazines, colorful paper scraps, and stamps, participants will create visual portraits of who they are—and who they might become. This drop-in art activity offers a creative space for reflection and fun across generations.
Recommended for ages 12+.
