🖤TJFF is saddened to learn of the passing of writer Morley Torgov, one of Canada’s best storytellers on Jewish life. We had the honour to collaborate with him on two screening series focusing on film and TV adaptions of his work.
📺Morley Torgov brought stories of Jewish communities in small-town Ontario to life with humour, warmth and a critical eye, most notably, his award-winning memoir, A Good Place to Come From (1974) about growing up in Sault Ste. Marie.
🇨🇦 A practicing lawyer since the mid-Fifties, Morley Torgov won the Stephen Leacock Medal for Humour for A Good Place to Come From and The Outside Chance of Maximilian Glick (1982). In 2015, he was awarded the Order of Canada for his “contribution to Canadian humour.”
🎞 For those who wish to hear Morley share his stories and wit in his own words, you can watch this conversation we were privileged to record with him in 2021.

⭐ This rare cult-classic from TJFF1998 is available now for free on J-Flix!
🎞 Young couple Lolly and Rani are at a crossroads in their relationship. He wants to emigrate from Israel; she wants to stay put. When Lolly has to suddenly go to Haifa, leaving Rani alone in Tel Aviv, Irena, a husband hunting German tourist enters the picture. A dry and offbeat comedy about crossed connections, miscommunication and pick-pockets.
