Abstract
Footage from the 1997 documentary “A Life Apart: Hasidism in America” (directed by Menachem Daum and Oren Rudavsky), the first in-depth documentary about Hasidic Jews, members of a distinctive group within Judaism that has roots in pre-World War II Eastern Europe.
Interview with scholar Ann Braude. 11/30/1996
About the inequality of women within Hasidism as a contradiction of their important roles as mothers and transmitters of value to the next generation. But within Hasidism their roles as mothers are affirmed in a way that doesn’t happen in the outside world. Women are getting something out of this. But that’s the only role they are allowed to have.
