TEHORA / PURITY

A rare and special look into the world of Jewish religious married life and sexuality, a topic which has hardly been documented: the story of a family purification ritual, a hidden path of struggle for religious women in the framework of strict, masculine religious law that shapes the life of a couple and female sexuality.

The story of a subtle female rebellion within the religious world, expressed through the personal point of view of the director Anat Zuria, and the other women in the film, her friends Natalie, Katie and Shira. Their openness to the camera breaks a profound taboo of silence rooted in two thousand-year-old laws and contemporary social pressures.
