This documentary reveals the story of the Jaradi's, a Jewish Yemenite family, one of many that were brought from Yemen to the US (Monroe, NY) by the Ultra orthodox Satmar Community which operates a propaganda machine against the immigration to Israel.
We hate to say it, but we can't find anywhere to view this film.

Modest, disturbing documentary.
Christian Science Monitor by David Sterritt
Stranger than fiction, indeed.
Potentially shocking expose is weakened by one-sided reportage that leaves too many questions unanswered.
Offers a rare glimpse into the hermetic world of the Satmars.
Chilling and thoroughly engrossing documentary.
Given the complexity of this case and of the Satmar/Zionist feud, the documentary would've benefited from some dryly expert talking heads and a more conventional structure.
New York Post by Russell Scott Smith
Infuriating, but not for the reason filmmakers want it to be.
