“Outsiders call Chelm the village of idiots,” Shmendrick says, “but our rabbi called us a city of natural geniuses with our own way of figuring things out.” Based on a Jewish folk tale adapted by playwright John Lazarus, this animated short follows simpleton Shmendrik from a small Polish village. Tired of daily life, he quests for knowledge, only to discover a new Chelm that eerily mirrors his old home—an amusing commentary on our habit of romanticizing what we lack.
