USA 1980 | 60 minutes | English | Hebrew subtitles

Set against the iconic Coney Island boardwalk, Brighton Beach is a neighborhood in constant reformation. This 1980 documentary offers a vérité portrait of the immigrant communities that changed the Brooklyn neighborhood—mostly Soviet Jews and Puerto Ricans—as they mingle on the boardwalk with long-time residents, eye one another, and coexist around a shared sense of uprootedness. Filmmakers Carol Stein and Susan Wittenberg offer an unposed, seductively shot, film about life’s simple pleasures and the creation of a community. 4K restoration courtesy of IndieCollect.
