Shalom Safranim, Aging is a topic that touches us all. And in this exuberant documentary we get a peek at one man who refuses to adhere to the norms. In his recent review in EMRO, Michel Fein writes "To say that he is an example of "positive mental attitude" is to say that water is wet". In FANTASTISCH, we learn that the secret to a long life is vivid colors; happy music and making others smile. 100-year-old Shmulik Lesched is living proof. And in this sometimes melancholy and enormously uplifting documentary, we get to know a man who energetically takes on life. A kid at heart, Shmulik is no ordinary street performer. Breaking all preconceptions on aging, and together with his devoted caretaker, Mira, the two of them travel Israel and the world spreading good cheer - all the while working on the secret to a meaningful and long life. Already purchased by the several leading libraries throughout the world, we think this film is essential to your collection as well.
