How many of you out here in cyberspace have heard of the Borough Park neighborhood? Well, if you have, then do you know that it's a Jewish ultra - Orthodox neighborhood in Brooklyn. I had however no idea about their existence. It was therefore really interesting to follow the Jewish lawyer Rachel Freier. Which makes something very radical, when she tries to start a civic ambulance force with only women in this area. Because, immediately so is she almost stone walled by the community. And it happens from every side that you can think of. As even her husband is against it, which are not so cray if you know how the traditions that you are living after in this area. According to the ultra-Orthodox Jewish tradition so can a woman only be touched by her own husband, except in emergencies - which I think your are jumping from your house, as it are are burning down. Or you are forced to give birth in your home. But it is not accepted by these “religion” But giving up the fight, that is not Rachel intends to do in the first place. Throughout the documentary, we then follow her commitment, which she has with some other female believers, who are actually making some progress. But will they succeed
in their intention to really break through this patriarchal societal norm? Yes, that is the main premise of this documentary, which has a good tempo, structure and clarity. As a viewer, I never have to think about what is happening. We also get other side votes.
