Number Our Days

The documentary "Number Our Days" was an anthropological study of a community of elderly Jews in Venice, California. I thought it was very interesting due to the fact that most of the time anthropological studies are about cultures which are immensely different then American culture. Listening to how this subset of American culture has struggled to maintain their identity and way of life throughout the years was heartbreaking. It was also a unique topic because it was a group of people that someday some of us are going to become. Although I am not Jewish, I have many friends who are, and who someday are going to be elderly Jews.
