Orthodox (2015)

In the throbbing heart of an Orthodox Jewish community, a young boy named Benjamin, beleaguered by the relentless persecution for his faith, finds solace and strength in the raw, visceral world of boxing. His fists, initially used for self-defense, become his ticket to survival, but this newfound path estranges him from his religious community, leaving him balancing precariously on the tightrope between two discordant worlds. As an adult, Benjamin's life spirals into a labyrinth of criminal activity. His desperation to provide for his family pushes him to make a catastrophic decision, one that lands him in the bleak confines of prison and costs him the love of those he cherishes most. Upon his release, the weight of guilt and regret propels him to rectify the wrongs that catalyzed his downfall. Seeking redemption and a way back into the community that once shunned him, Benjamin finds himself standing on the familiar grounds of his old boxing gym. It's here that a shattering revelation about his past is uncovered. This harrowing truth triggers a chain of events that irrevocably alter Benjamin's life, ensuring that the normalcy he yearned for remains an elusive dream, forever out of reach. His tale is one of faith and fallibility, of choices and their consequences, and the relentless quest for acceptance in a world that seems determined to deny him.
