Greenville Jewish Film Festival Pop-Up Movie: The Ring
Nov 9 all-day
Camelot Cinemas

Join The Greenville Jewish Film Festival for its latest Pop Up Movie to be shown at Camelot Cinemas!

The Ring focuses on Arnon Noble, a religious man with a strong bond to his mother, a Holocaust survivor. He usually drives her to school lectures where she tells the students how she saved the lives of her baby boy and herself with the help of a thin gold ring. When the mother’s health deteriorates, he travels to her old hometown, Budapest to search for the mythological ring that saved her life in the past.

He turns to his estranged daughter, who is a TV researcher, for help and invites her to share the journey. Will the search for the ring be successful? Will the ring save the mother’s life again and will the same ring that saved her mother also succeed in saving Arnon’s relationship with his own daughter?

Tickets can be purchased here. Adult tickets are $18, and student tickets are $14. Both include popcorn and a drink. Students can email [email protected] for a discount code.
