With a recent wave of documentaries and feature films about and produced within the ultra-Orthodox community, there has never been a greater opportunity to glimpse inside that characteristically enclosed world. Join the Jewish Studies Program this Spring for a series of four movies focusing on the experience of Orthodox Jews in America and abroad. Held at 7PM in Arnold Hall, screenings are free and open to the public.

MENASHE (2017, 82min)
In this heartwarming and fascinating story that gives a first-time glimpse into a notoriously secret community, a loving father fights against tradition in order to keep custody of his only son after his wife passes away.
