New York Times & Los Angeles Times CRITICS PICK!
Israel’s #1 Film of the Year!
An accident during a bar mitzvah celebration leads to a gender rift in
a devout Orthodox community in Jerusalem, in this rousing, good-hearted
tale about women speaking truth to patriarchal power.
When the women’s balcony in an Orthodox synagogue collapses, leaving the rabbi’s wife in a coma and the rabbi in shock, the congregation falls into crisis. Charismatic young Rabbi David appears to be a savior after the accident, but slowly starts pushing his fundamentalist ways and tries to take control. This tests the women’s friendships and creates an almost Lysistrata-type rift between the community’s women and men.
Come see this film on our brand new state-of-the-art media system! Suggested donation of $5 per person. There will be popcorn and drinks available for purchase. We will be using our new popcorn machine!

Come hear NIF Executive Director in Israel Mickey Gitzin. As a liberal, openly gay son of Russian immigrants, Mickey Gitzin recognizes both the great leaps forward that Israel has made in advancing equality for all its citizens and the challenges that remain. He is one of a new wave of young Israeli leaders bringing an intersectional approach to the issues of the day.
Israeli and American Jewry are currently grappling with large societal questions.
- What does the future of the Israeli progressive movement look like?
- What victories does it take for granted?
- Which issues are the most important for Israelis and Americans to solve in the coming years?
