Sarah D It moved me to tears. I never thought that could happen after hearing the premise but it was truly introspective and beautiful. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/14/23 Full Review Lauren C I was grinning and sad and entranced by all the perspectives and bits of Jewish study. This movie is very thought provoking.
