The Return of Sarah's Daughters
Running time: N/A
San Francisco-based filmmaker Marcia Jarmel never identified herself as a Jew. That was before a friend's wedding where she was drawn into the Orthodox Jewish world. She takes her camera to Crown Heights, Brooklyn, the center of Lubavitcher Chassidic life, to explore what draws modern, educated women to choose such a restrictive way of life. Along the way, Jarmel learns about her own Jewish identity as well as the choices one makes in life and the rich benefits of community.
