Beautiful, intimate drama about love, captivity and the search for liberation. Shira Haas, with her girlish appearance, is perfect for her leading role. Every emotion, no matter how small, can be read on her face. The ultra-Orthodox Jewish community in New York is portrayed respectfully, but insistently (and oppressively).

Fascinating, if rather one-sided, look at an ultra-Orthodox Jewish community in the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn, New York. At one point, Esther Shapiro (Shira Haas), who was married off there, flees to Berlin to try to build a new life there. Certain story elements are a bit too easy and too short-sighted, but the effectively used flashbacks and the excellent and above all convincing role of Haas make up for a lot.
