About film
This film is executed in an intriguing style – director Sol Friedman combines documentary and animated storytelling. The film is based on an interview with a 90-year-old Jewish woman Razie Brownstone, who goes through a crisis of faith, rejects conditioning that was imposed by Judaism, and tries forbidden bacon for the very first time.
