The Cafeteria

Cine Golden Eagle Award

Winner of the coveted Cine Golden Eagle award and Honorable Mention at the American Film Festival, this compelling film transports us into the world of a 1960's New York cafeteria and the isolated people who find one another and share, if only for a brief time, that they belong. Amidst an inspiring ensemble cast, two wonderful Broadway performers caress the unusual relationship of a successful writer (Bob Dishy, as a European-born refugee), who is fascinated by a young woman (Zohra Lampert), a refugee and survivor of the holocaust.

Singer was awarded the Noble Prize for Literature, and his story is lovingly and faithfully adapted by award-winning writer Ernest Kinoy, whose body of work includes "Roots" and "Raid on Entebee"
