Everything's Kosher

Southeast US Premiere

In Everything’s Kosher, Adam, a divorced Jewish father from Chicago, embarks on a heartfelt journey to fulfill a promise to his only daughter: never to abandon her. Settling in a small German town steeped in the shadows of antisemitism and Nazi history, he dreams of opening a Jewish deli to reconnect with his roots and forge new bonds within his community.

As he navigates the challenges of his new life, a painful rift with his estranged father, who abandoned the family decades before, weighs heavily on his soul. Determined to break the cycle of abandonment and heal old wounds, Adam travels from Germany to Chicago and finally to Cape Cod, where he confronts the man he hasn't spoken to in forty years.

Throughout this transformative journey, Adam grapples with the ghosts of his past, seeking the strength to forgive and move forward, ultimately striving to become the father his daughter deserves. Against all odds, the deli begins to take shape, symbolizing his resilience and the profound power of the human spirit.
