Menashe
Directed by Joshua Weinstein
USA, Narrative, 82 minutes
Menashe is the Hasidic Jewish film you never knew you needed to see. Threatened with the loss of his son unless he remarries, widower Menashe attempts to find order and meaning within the strict customs of his orthodox religion. Performed in Yiddish and shot over the course of two years in Borough Park, Brooklyn, Menashe will charm and move you with its poignant and powerful story and fascinate you with its unprecedented glimpse into a frequently insular society.
