A riveting new film for women by Chabad Israeli filmmaker Tali Avrahami, The Fence (HaGader) is the intense and inspiring story of a Jewish family during a critical point in history. During the 1800s, the Jewish people were experiencing the devastating Cantonist practice of the Czars–which wrenched young Jewish boys away from their families to complete their childhood and young adulthood in the brutal Russian Army–coupled with the destructive enticements of the assimilationist Haskalah intellectual movement. The film’s message is timeless, and eerily relevant to the era we live in today.
