A group of video editors have made a video about the Holtzberg and their guests.

The work of love, completed in 48 hours, included many photos and unseen footage of the Holtzbergs, and interviews with both Gabi and Rivkie - including an interview in which she makes a “prophetic” reference about Sandra, the Nanny who ended up saving her son's life.

VIDEO: JEM Produces A Video Tribute to the Holtzbergs

A group of video editors have made a video about the Holtzberg and their guests.

The work of love, completed in 48 hours, included many photos and unseen footage of the Holtzbergs, and interviews with both Gabi and Rivkie – including an interview in which she makes a “prophetic” reference about Sandra, the Nanny who ended up saving her son’s life.

Part two in the Extended Article.

Footage and photos were collected on several continents, with many people helping out, including individuals in Israeli TV stations, El Al pilots, photographers in Mumbai, and all the Lubavitch news sites. It includes Gabi meeting with the Rebbe and a look into the inspiration that led Gabi and Rivki to go to Mumbai.

The JEM staff worked around the clock from immediately after Shabbos, and completed the video before the Levaya.

It was edited by Yankee Teitelbaum, Yanky Ascher, Alon Schwartz and Yossi Margolin. Mendel Gourarie and Shmueli Shmotkin coordinated much of the research. It was written and produced by Elkanah Shmotkin.

They have called the video, “Love Means Love.” They dedicate their work to the Kedoshim.

    A most magnificent tribute that elicits both tears and joy. Yes, its’ title, “Love Means Love” is so true. The love and radiance of this beautiful couple comes from the heart and reaches the heart. And the Rebbe is so with us, now, then and always. I feel enveloped by love from watching this video.

    So much gratitude to the JEM crew for their sensitivity in creating something beautiful beyond words to comfort and inspire all of us through these last days of galus.
