This month’s movie: “Praying With Lior”
Many believe Lior is close to godÑat least that’s what his family and community believeÑthough he’s also a burden, a best friend, an inspiration and an embarrassment, depending on who is asked and when. As this documentary moves to its climax, Lior must pass through the gateway to manhood – his bar mitzvah.
