A Tisha B'Av Film · July 22
NEIGHBORS
Same people. Different worlds. One table.
Four Jews sit at the same table. They share a history, a faith, and a destiny. Yet many feel further apart than ever.
An Anonymous Question
Do you trust Jews who aren't like you?
"Not really."
"Depends who."
"I wish I did."
"We've become too divided."
"We're one nation, but it doesn't feel that way."

It's who doesn't.
