A fascinating journey into the cultural world of the modern Samaritan community and their 3,500-year-old traditions. Imperiled by the sparsity of women and the challenges of modern life, the 850 Samaritans residing on Mt. Gerezim strive to preserve their unique identity before it is too late. Over the course of five years, filmmaker Moshe Alafi was granted rare insight into this culture, living between Judaism and Islam. The result is an intimate and compelling insider’s view of the Samaritan struggle against the odds, of their heart-wrenching choices, their joys, and sorrows.
