This comedy of manners, screening in its U.S. Premiere, turns on Jill, a single, 30-something Jewish tax preparer in contemporary Berlin who falls for Mark, a landscape architect, and a nice German boy. Her close, extended family zealously wishes her married, but forbids her to marry a non-Jew. So, when Jill brings Mark home for Shabbat dinner she urges him to pretend to be Jewish. He "passes" with flying colors. One thing leads to another -- until Mark's cover is blown, and Jill must make a decision about her happiness. In German with subtitles. In Person: Director Dirk Regel. Followed by a Post-Film Reception, including raffle, for young adults at Finale Desserterie and Bakery, 1306 Beacon Street, Brookline. OH, WHAT A MESS! ticket serves as admission.
