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?

🎬 The Legend of Juan Jose Mundo is a vibrant coming-of-age story about first love, teenage obsession and identity in 1980s New York.

Reboot’s 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.

🍿 The Legend of Juan Jose Mundo is available to rent now on Prime Video and Apple TV.

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

Henry Winkler recalls how his parents hid their family heirlooms inside melted chocolate just to escape N**i Germany with enough resources to survive. It’s a striking reminder of the lengths our ancestors went to preserve their families and legacy.

His father, Harry Irving Winkler, later started a lumber business and was able to purchase back the jewelry. Winkler later gave his son a pocket watch that was part of the original collection smuggled out of Germany disguised as chocolate as a beautiful tribute to the family history.

The interview, held earlier this month, kicked off Season 17 of In Depth with Graham Bensinger.
