Film Screening: Menashe

There’s Nothing Orthodox About Him.

Menashe is a warm, life affirming look at the universal bonds between father and son that also sheds unusual light on a notoriously private community. Based largely on the real life of its Hasidic star Menashe Lustig, the film is strikingly authentic and deeply moving portrait of family, love, connection, and community.

Running time: 82 min.
