My Mexican Shivah Director: Alejandro Springall, Country: Mexico, Release: 2006, Runtime: 102m, Language: Spanish, Hebrew, and Yiddish with English subtitles. Family and friends sit shiva in Mexico City for Moishe Tartakovsky, a much beloved patriarch. Mourners include a Catholic ex-lover, an Orthodox ex-convict grandson, and a troupe of mariachi musicians. Two Yiddish-speaking spirits wryly observe the mourners while accounting for Moishe’s soul. My Mexican Shivah is a charming comedy based on a story by Ilan Stavans, produced by John Sayles and Maggie Renzi, and featuring a score performed by The Klezmatics. U.S. Premiere preceded by Chronicles of a Professional Eulogist Director: Sarah Jane Lapp, Country: USA, Release: 2005, Runtime: 7m In this hand-drawn animated film, a rabbi—who prefers to think of himself as a “grief facilitator”—candidly shares trade secrets.
