Havdalah in Two Acts
This year, since Tisha B'Av is observed on Sunday, Havdalah is postponed
until Sunday evening after the conclusion of the fast. However,
on Saturday evening following Maariv prior to the reading of Eicha we
recite the blessing of Boreh Me’orei Ha’esh over a candle. At the conclusion
of the fast, one recites Havdalah over a beverage such as beer
and recites only the blessing over the beverage and the blessing of Ha-
Mavdil bein Kodesh le-Chol.
Tisha B’Av Films
The Boy in the Striped Pajamas (2009)
Set during World War II, a story
seen through the innocent eyes
of Bruno, the eight-year-old son
of the commandant at a concentration
camp, whose forbidden
friendship with a Jewish boy on
the other side of the camp fence
has startling and unexpected consequences.
The Long Way Home (1997)
The Long Way Home begins its story at the liberation of
the camps. The long awaited day had come, when the survivors
of the Nazi terror could now go home. But to
where? This film tells of the tribulations that awaited the
survivors. Real film footage and
narration opens the long forgotten
period of 1945 to 1948. From the
promise of Eretz Israel to the horrors
of the Displaced Persons camps
to the excitement of finally having a
homeland - this film hearkens to
many emotions. The struggle of one
people against the forces of world
politics culminates in the creation
of the long-awaited Jewish State.
