Description
Unorthodox Education, a 40-minute documentary created by Jewish filmmakers, lifts the curtain on schooling in Hasidic and Haredi communities, through interviews with people who have left the ultra-Orthodox world as well as journalists, academics, and advocates, revealing the human cost of actively depriving kids of a secular education while chronicling a decade-long political struggle for these children.
