The Vigil
(2020)Set over the course of a single evening in Brooklyn's Hassidic "Boro" Park neighborhood, The Vigil follows Yakov, a former Hassid, as he accepts a position as a shomer, hired to "sit the vigil" and watch over the body of a deceased community member. Having lost his faith, Yakov isn't eager to go back to the insular religious community he only recently fled. But when Reb Shulem, a rabbi and confidante, approaches Yakov after a support group meeting and offers to pay Yakov to be the shomer for a recently deceased Holocaust survivor, he reluctantly accepts the job. Shortly after arriving at the dilapidated house, Yakov realizes that something is very, very wrong. This will not be a quiet vigil. Steeped in ancient Jewish lore, The Vigil is a visceral and terrifying supernatural horror film set in a world audiences have never before experienced.
