You Never Know - February-March upcoming screenings
A link to the Article:
Turning Documentary into Art/ GoJerusalem. Dec. 12
The film features no external narration, a feat of great courage for such a young filmmaker. Neither does he distract the viewer with subtitles of the names of the interviewees, who are all, instead, listed at the end of the film. This helps transform the film from documentary to art, and adds to a feeling that we are experiencing it in real time.

About the Film:
"There are two questions you can ask another human being: "What are you?" and "who are you?". If you ask "what are you?" - you demolish the world and if you ask "who are you?" - you build it..." (Shlomo Carlebach)
Rabbi, folksinger and composer, Shlomo Carlebach is considered by many to be the foremost Jewish religious songwriter of our time. He passed away a decade ago, yet his compositions and his spiritual messages have grown in strength. Early in his career, Shlomo was knows as the “"The Singing Rabbi". He studied at the orthodox Talmudical Academy at Lakewood, New Jersey and preached the Torah to hippies in San Francisco.
Today, almost every Jewish community around the world has a "Carlebach minyan" – a song-filled synagogue service. However, all that belongs to the "what are you?"...
Shlomo Carlebach’s life touched millions of Jews and non-Jews across North America, Israel and around the world, the vitality of his personality impacted everyone he met.
He walked the streets and prayed: "If there is anybody that I am supposed to meet in this world, please don`t let me pass him by". Every outing became an opportunity for him to touch another person. One with a look, another with his words, or a song, a hug... and the experience remained with all of them.
This sensitive personal film, takes you to a Journey that senses and searches for that touch, for the endless embrace, on a quest for the answer... "Who are you?"
