Hello and Baruch Hashem.
My name is Sam, but my friends call me Jeff, and I attend CHAT-RH in Canada. I am a Jewish day school student, and we just finished viewing Sallah in class. It is truly an amazing film that brings the love out of Jewish Jewry. As my late toda'ah teacher said: "Baruch Hashem, tov tov, Ha tarbut shelanu hu CHAI!" Throughout the documentary on Eastern-European Arabs that arrive in Israel, Sallah Shabati and his family depict the hardships and triumphant return to freedom. Under persecution by the kibutznikim, Sallah and his family members took on the outer secular world by enhancing their social lives in an extremely hard society. Jenny Segal once said "Winners don't quit, and Quitters don't win".
The musical soundtrack is truly phenomenal, and warms the heart even at the saddest of moments. Wow, the tune is an utter masterpiece infused with the characteristics of early Shakespearen heritage. The background portrays in immense form of emancipation of the Jewish culture.
Watch the movie, and you will understand what I am talking about
Singing out, Jeff Guche
