Israel, Uganda 2023 | 40 minutes | English | Hebrew subtitles
Reform Rabbi Yehudit Edelman-Green (60) embarks on a journey. The destination: an encounter with a distant Jewish community – the Abayudaya community in Uganda. This is Yehudit’s first visit to Africa, and she invites her daughter, filmmaker Shira Green, to accompany her. For Shira, the journey raises questions of identity and contemplation on the relationship between man and God and man and his fellow. Thus, a journey that begins with the question “Who is a Jew?” evolves into an exploration of what connects us as human beings – is it religion, faith, a way of life?
