Museum Of Tolerance – an Enlightening Exchange, Inc. event

The Museum of Tolerance will host an innovative theatrical experience.

BETRAYING THE LION

An ancient gate will open, and the audience will visit the Jewish Ghetto in Renaissance Venice.
LED lights of the theatre will ripple with the water of the Grand Canal. The sound will echo the ringing of the Inquistion Bells, and actors in rich velvet will tell the story of “Betraying the Lion”; winner of the “No-Borders” International screenplay competition from the IFP, awarded to stories that will “cross any border and have international audience appeal”, the most prestigious honor given to a screenplay in the independent film world. Previous winners won many Academy Award nominations.

GOAL
The goal of the event is to foster tolerance and understanding between Jews, Christians and Moslems, and raise awareness among young people.
