Description
"Hineni: Coming Out in a Jewish High School," a film directed by Irena Fayngold, produced by Irena Fayngold and Keshet
“Hineini” (Hebrew for 'Here I Am") is the story of one student's courageous fight to establish a Gay-Straight Alliance at her Jewish high school. Meet Shulamit Izen--a high school student, a devoted Jew, and an out lesbian. Using inteviews with Shulamit, her family, teachers, and other students--both those who support her campaign and those who oppose it--Hineini alows the members of this community to tell their own story of struggle and transformation. What emerges is a potent story of Jewish pluralism and a community navigating the cross-currents of Jewish tradition and social change.
