Part 2 - Wednesday, May 5th // 10:00am
In this two lecture series we seek to promote knowledge about the Ultra-Orthodox, which strictly observes Jewish Halacha and isolates itself from the internet and any mainstream media. This is also a unique opportunity to get closer to the wonderful characters of “Shtisel” and the writer who created them.
5/5 at 10:00am: Meet Yehonatan Indursky, the co-writer of “Shtisel” and the creator of several other highly acclaimed films on ultra-orthodox Jews. Indursky grew up in an ultra-Orthodox family.
