But there's another side to this story: that of the Goddesses, humanity's earliest deities. 'Seder-Masochism' resurrects the Great Mother in a tragic struggle against the forces of patriarchy.

Filmmaker/animator extraordinare (and Jewish) Nina Paley has just released her newest film "Seder-Masochism"...filled with tap-dancing Moses, the ten plagues, the visage of God (speaking in the voice of her late father), and swaying, cartwheeling, singing and spiraling Goddesses. Set to popular blues, rock, soul and spirituals, this film is an emotional, searing indictment of violence including (and especially) supression of the Goddess. At times hilarious, shocking, and devastating, this film is unforgettable.
