CGiii Comment

It it's not the priests...then, it's the rabbis...

This is heartbreaking, deeply disturbing...

It will linger.

An incredible film.

The(ir) Blurb...

Yotam, a thirteen year-old boy studying at an ultra-orthodox Jewish boarding school tries to battle the awakening of his sexual desires. Confused and guilt-ridden, he consults with his rabbi who abuses his position and Yotam's innocence. With no one to trust and nowhere to go, Yotam finds himself trapped by the enforced silence in his community.
