Cinematheque Tel Aviv attempted to prevent men from attending screenings of the movie “The Heart that Sings,” according to a man who attempted to purchase a ticket to the film Sunday.
Dr. Yosef Algazi said the woman working at the box office told him the movie was for women only. According to the Cinematheque’s description of the movie in its program that [...]

Orthodox director Robin Garbose is at it again. First she made history four years ago with a red carpet premiere of her movie musical “A Light for Greytowers” in Los Angeles. Modestly clad Orthodox girls and women filled Paramount Studio’s lot at the Sherry Lansing Theater, many attending a movie for the first time.
Last week, during Hanukkah, Garbose again proved that Jewish religious art can prevail with the women-only premiere of her second film, “The Heart that [...]
Filmed summer 2010 by the girls and staff of Kol Neshama, and based on the short story by Gershon Kranzler, “The Heart that Sings” tells the story of a young Holocaust survivor named Miriam who spends a 1950s summer as the music director at a camp in the Catskills Mountains of New York. At first, the campers take advantage of Miriam’s quiet, broken spirit, but in the end, they transform each other in a magnificent way.

As an Orthodox woman – hassidic, even – it has been hard for me to watch the news and developments from Israel in recent weeks.
On one hand, Jewish law and traditions of female modesty are very important to me. Although I did not grow up in an observant family, I came to embrace the value of personal modesty as an adult.

“The Light” premiered at the “Raise the Sparks” Concert just two days ago. Wishing everyone a joyous Chanukah full of light and inspiration!
The premiere tonight at the Jerusalem Jewish film Festival was spectacular, BH! I want to thank you all for the tremendous support you have given us throughout the years.
Wow! The film is really melting divisiveness and bringing Jews from disparate points of view together. People also came tonight from the Religious Film Festival in Rome (not Jewish)– they would like the film to play there as well. My heart is certainly singing!
All my best, Robin

Robin Garbose’s groundbreaking new film, ‘The Heart that Sings,’ is a movie musical created exclusively for women and girls.
Many directors like to think themselves unique, but no one except Robin Saex Garbose could utter the sentence, “My frumkeit deepened while I was directing episodes of America’s Most Wanted.”
Garbose is in here this week to present her latest film, The Heart That Sings, which is being shown at the 13th Jerusalem Jewish Film Festival at the Jerusalem Cinematheque [...]
