In this action-packed adaptation of the beloved book by Israeli writer David Grossman, Nono is days away from his Bar Mitzvah. He aspires to be a famous police inspector just like his dad, but is constantly getting into trouble. Sent away to his uncle’s to be disciplined, he meets his father’s arch rival on the train and the pair is off on an adventure which ultimately helps Nono uncover the truth about the mother he never knew. Featuring a delightful cameo by Isabella Rossellini, THE ZIGZAG KID is an entertaining coming of age tale for both young and old. (Ages 12+)
