The Women's Balcony
(2016)An accident during a bar mitzvah celebration leads to a gender rift in a devout Orthodox community in Jerusalem, in this rousing, good-hearted tale about women speaking truth to patriarchal power.

This tests the women’s friendships and creates an almost Lysistrata-type rift between the community’s women and men.
