What makes a story Jewish? Is it the characters, the subject, the person telling it, or something harder to define: a sensibility, a joke, a question or a detail that feels unmistakably familiar?
π¬ The Legend of Juan Jose Mundo is a vibrant coming-of-age story about first love, teenage obsession and identity in 1980s New York.
Rebootβs Tanya Schevitz sat down with writer/director Mike Walker, writer/producer Susan Gomes and star Anna Mirodin to talk about the film and the many ways a story can be Jewish without announcing itself as one.
πΏ The Legend of Juan Jose Mundo is available to rent now on Prime Video and Apple TV.

Reboot is proud to serve as the filmβs Jewish Outreach and Engagement Partner, working with Pango Films to help bring this contemporary Jewish story to audiences and communities.
