The Glory of Life | Pioneer Valley Jewish Film Festival Screening

Set against the picturesque Baltic Sea coast in 1923, this tender drama captures Franz Kafka’s final year, transformed by the redemptive power of love. The fragile writer, battling tuberculosis and an overbearing family, finds an unforeseen connection with Dora Diamant, a spirited young woman working at a Jewish community center. Their romance blooms into a profound partnership, carrying them through Berlin to an Austrian sanatorium where Kafka confronts his mortality with newfound peace.

Presented by the Pioneer Valley Jewish Film Festival and co-sponsored by the Yiddish Book Center.
