North Suburban Synagogue Beth El (1175 Sheridan Rd., Highland Park) will host a screening of the documentary Refuge: Stories of the Selfhelp Home on Wednesday, August 29 at 1:00 pm.  The film reveals the origins and originality of a resourceful community that over generations has brought together more than 1,000 Central European Jewish refugees and Holocaust survivors under one roof. A talkback with the director, Ethan Bensinger will follow. This event is free and open to the community. Contact Marcie Eskin at meskin@nssbethel.org or 847/432-8903 x234 for more information.
