SUMMARY:The Zigzag Kid (2012), directed by Vincent Bal 
DESCRIPTION:
 Based on the beloved novel by David Grossman, 
 "The Zigzag Kid" appeals to adults and children 
 alike with its comical and picturesque quest. 
 In this zany and action-packed tall tale, 
 Nono, a nearly 13-year-old dreamer, longs to 
 be a detective like his father, a famous police 
 inspector, but Nono's wild nature constantly 
 gets him into trouble. Fed up with Nono's 
 fantasies and antics, his father sends him off 
 to his uncle. On the way, the very imaginative 
 Nono meets the charming international thief 
 Felix Glick, entering a world of intrigue 
 and pursuits, crossing paths with the famous 
 singer Lola Ciperola and the mysterious Zohara, 
 whose secrets will change Nono's life forever. 
 Yael Aronoff will introduce the film. Israel 
 Institute and Serling Israeli Visiting 
 Scholar Yuval Benziman and Laura Apol, MSU Education, 
 children's and adolescent literature, 
 will discuss the film and answer questions 
 afterward. Co-sponsored by MSU Libraries, James 
 Madison College, and the Center for European, 
 Russian, and Eurasian Studies.\n
