"Shalom Bollywood: The Untold Story of Indian Cinema"
Wednesday, November 28
7 p.m. at FOX EAST
4350 Perkiomen Ave. Reading
$5 for single ticket or $25 for series of six films
"SHALOM BOLLYWOOD" reveals the unlikely story of the 2000- year-old Indian Jewish com- munity and its formative place in shaping the world's largest film industry. When Indian cinema began 100 years ago it was taboo for Hindu and Islamic women to perform on screen, so for decades, Indian Jewish women took on female lead roles. Infused with music & dancing, the cheekily told documentary unabashedly oozes Bollywood as it uses film motifs to drive the narrative.
