The Museum of Tolerance and the Simon Wiesenthal Center are holding a special screening of “Legend of Destruction” on Tuesday, Sept. 15, at 7 p.m.

“Legend of Destruction,” an award-winning film exploring a consequential period in Jewish history, is set during the Jewish revolt against the Roman Empire. The film chronicles the escalating conflict that ultimately culminated in civil war and the destruction of the Second Jewish Temple in 70 CE.

Told through 1,500 original paintings brought to life on screen, the film offers a striking portrayal of the political and social tensions that shaped this pivotal moment. The film features the vocal talents of a star-studded cast including Oscar Isaac, Evangeline Lilly, Elliott Gould and Billy Zane. “Legend of Destruction” received four Israeli Academy Awards.

The evening reflects the Museum of Tolerance’s commitment to preserving memory, reflecting on Jewish history and the enduring lessons of division and resilience.
