In the wake of trauma and abuse, three Hasidic Jews face ostracism, anxiety and danger as they attempt to leave their ultra-Orthodox community. One of Us explores the opaque world of Hasidic Judaism through a cadre of fascinating characters.
Through unique and intimate access over the span of three years, observational filmmakers Heidi Ewing and Rachel Grady delve into the lives of three brave individuals who have recently made the decision to leave the insular ultra-orthodox community at the expense of all else, including relationships with their family members and - in one case - their personal safety.
The documentary chronicles the achingly cinematic journey of people in search of a personal freedom that comes only at a very high cost.
