To kick off their Chai Tea + a Movie screening series for another year, this Sunday, October 21 the Toronto Jewish Film Festival presents the Toronto premiere of The Rabbi’s Cat.

This particularly gorgeous animated feature (take a look at the stills below for a better idea) is an adaptation of the French graphic novel by Joann Sfar, first published in 2002. It depicts 1920s Algiers, where a rabbi and his daughter live by the sea, with a talking cat. They set out on a quest to the heart of Africa with said cat, and a few other friends.

You can get your tickets ($15) in advance on the Toronto Jewish Film Festival website, or by calling 416-324-9121.

Obsessed with watching movies as far back as she can remember, Pam loves film enough to have two university degrees in the subject. When not focused on a movie screen, she can usually be found reading, cooking, touring vineyards, or planning where to spend her vacation time.
