Club Oasis Presents: Hiding & Seeking, A Documentary
Menachem Daum, an Orthodox Jew and child of Holocaust survivors, is troubled by what he sees as the growing insularity of his Orthodox Jewish world. His sons, Tzvi Dovid and Akiva, haved moved to Israel, where they live in an ultra-orthodox environment that teaches distrust and even contempt of non-Jews.
In Daum's documentary, Hiding & Seeking, he and his wife Rivka, both children of survivors, take their American-born sons to Poland to find the farm family that hid Rivka's father and his two brothers from the Nazis. While Daum is proud of his sons' faith, he also believes they have set themselves apart from the real world, and fears they've used their devotion as a wall rather than a bridge.
Filled with laughter and tears as well as profound insight into the human condition. IFP Independent Spirit Award nominee for Best Documentary, 2005. Runtime: 85 minutes.
