Once again, I'd appreciate it if you could forward this email to anyone else who might be interested in this information.  And here's a link to the Facebook group for the film.

This past Sunday, Aug. 3 (2nd of Av), there were two screenings of the film.
 
At Young Israel of Teaneck, NJ, Rabbi Aharon Rakeffet-Rothkoff, student and biographer of the Rav, spoke about his involvement as Senior Advisor on the film.

I attended the screening at Lido Beach Synagogue, on Long Island, on a beautiful day.  Rabbi Daniel Mehlman, rabbi of the synagogue, spoke about his experience as a student of the Rav in the 1960s.  The crowd was enthusiastic and almost all the seats were taken!
