Overview
One of the world’s most mysterious communities: the Hasidic Jews. A closed, religious community comprising hundreds of thousands of members. In the heart of New York, amid skyscrapers and modern life, there exists a completely different world where people live according to their own traditions. We are right in the middle of New York City, yet we rarely hear English spoken. In this part of Brooklyn, many people speak Yiddish; Hebrew, meanwhile, plays an important role in religious life. In this documentary, we step into the world of this insular community to see what daily life is really like. We visit their neighborhoods, homes, workplaces, and synagogues; we speak with community members; and we also hear the story of someone who chose to leave this life behind.
