MAY 15 AND 17: Lives Well Lived In 2012, Sky Bergman began filming her then-99-year-old Italian grandmother, Evelyn Riciutti (shown), so she could preserve her grandmother’s recipes. While filming, she asked questions about life and requested words of wisdom.

The film will be introduced by Temple Israel’s Rabbi Jennifer Kaluzny and will be followed by a Q&A with filmmaker Bergman. $10/adult; $8/seniors and stu- dents. Mapletheater.com.
