In this episode, Avrum speaks with Henry Wolfond, a prominent businessman, Jewish community leader, and dedicated advocate for Toronto’s cultural scene. Henry offers an insider’s perspective on the Toronto International Film Festival’s (TIFF) decision to reinstate 'The Road Between Us: The Ultimate Rescue', a powerful documentary by acclaimed Canadian filmmaker Barry Avrich. The film chronicles the heroic October 7th rescue mission led by retired Israeli General Noam Tibon to save family members. Initially, TIFF removed the documentary from its lineup, citing legal and safety concerns, sparking intense debate and significant public outcry, particularly from the Jewish community.

• Why the film’s subject, the October 7, 2023 attacks and Noam Tibon’s rescue mission, carries urgent historical and moral weight
• The role of community response, especially from the Jewish community, in shaping cultural outcomes
• Strategies for confronting anti‑Semitism
• What this moment signals for filmmakers, festivals, and audiences in the 50th edition of TIFF and beyond

From her mother’s daring escape from Europe before World War II to her own liberation from a stifling marriage, Carla’s journey is a powerful meditation on survival, family, and self-discovery.
