THE SECRETS
Set in Safed, the site where the mystical texts of the Kabbalah were first received, Avi NesherÂs feature film THE SECRETS (SFJFF 2008) recounts the story of two young women fighting to be heard in the patriarchal world of the ultra-orthodox. Naomi, the daughter of a revered rabbi, manages to escape the yoke of an arranged marriage and comes to Safed to study in an orthodox womenÂs seminary. There, she catches the eye of Michelle, a rebellious new arrival from France. As they secretly embark on a series of purifying rituals together, their journey becomes even more complicated as they discover their growing attraction to one another.
