In acknowledgement of the 80th anniversary of European Liberation Day, Park Slope Library and Heartland Independent Film & Drama Forum invite you to this sneak preview.Adapted from the award-winning novel, Old Heart tells the story of Tom Johnson, a black American soldier who is part of the Allied liberation of Southern Netherlands in the fall of 1944. He works with a Jewish translator, Sarah van Praag, to smuggle food and supplies to starving residents of northern cities trapped behind Nazi lines. They also fall in love.
Sixty years later, in the summer of 2005, Tom foils his family’s plan to move him to an assisted living facility by taking a flight to the Netherlands. He is determined to find Sarah again, the love of his life.
A discussion with producer/screenwriter Roger Rapoport and a historian follows the film. You can see the feature film’s trailer at oldheartmovie.com
