Sabbath Queen
Sandi DuBowski
USA • 1 hour 45 minutes Directed by Sandi DuBowski A deeply human portrait about embracing complexity and conflict in pursuit of something higher. It follows Rabbi Amichai Lau-Lavie, who is torn between rejecting and embracing his destiny. A self-proclaimed “drag queen rebel,” he searches for spiritual meaning as he founds his experimental all-are-welcome congregation and creatively reinvents religion and ritual for a challenging, rapidly changing 21st century. — Michele Foreman, UAB Director of Media Studies
