Trembling Before G-d is an award-winning 2001 documentary that challenges common assumptions about faith, sexuality, and religious fundamentalism. Built around personal stories of Hasidic and Orthodox Jews who are gay or lesbian, the film portrays a group of people who face a profound dilemma: how to reconcile their passionate love of Judaism and the Divine with the Biblical prohibitions that forbid homosexuality. A discussion led by Anne Lewinson will follow the viewing.
