This extraordinary film delves into the Breslov Hasidic community in Yavniel, founded in the 1980s by Rabbi Schik, or Mohorosh, a charismatic yet controversial leader based in Brooklyn. Mohorosh welcomed Jews seeking community, from those who had lost faith to those with troubled pasts. After his death, two conflicting wills surfaced: one granting his fortune to his son Moishi, the other favoring select leaders. As disputes arose, shocking accounts of violence, extortion, and abuse emerged. Survivors, led by Moishi, break their silence, sharing their story with director Bat-Dor Ojalvo, who spent years earning their trust and filming in both Yavniel and Brooklyn.
