Film Screening: Unspoken — A Journey of Identity and History

April 27, 2025 | 2:30pm CST

9603 Woods Drive, Skokie, IL 60077

Join us for the powerful and eye-opening documentary Unspoken, a film that uncovers a hidden chapter of history and explores the complex intersections of identity, love, and silence.

Through the personal journey of Noam, a closeted teenager in a religious community, Unspoken reveals the untold persecution of gay men during the Holocaust and how this history resonates in the struggles of today’s LGBTQ+ individuals. The film challenges us to confront hidden truths and honors the strength of every voice, spoken or unspoken.

The program will begin with remarks from director Jeremy Borison, whose personal and professional experiences shape the heart of this film. Raised in a Modern Orthodox Jewish community, Borison’s own journey of self-discovery mirrors Noam’s. As an active advocate for LGBTQ+ rights within Orthodox Jewish spaces, Borison’s work bridges the gap between religion, identity, and social change. His films, including Unspoken, reflect his commitment to fostering compassion and understanding in the face of taboo subjects.

Don’t miss this unforgettable program that highlights the power of uncovering silenced histories, embracing personal identity, and fostering understanding across communities.

Free to the public. Reservations required.
