Time: 3:15 pm

FC is proud to co-present “Leaving the Fold,” a documentary film which tells the story of five young people born and raised within the ultra-Orthodox Jewish world who no longer wish to remain on the inside. As children they grew up in a closed society where deviation from the rules is often punishable by ostracism, intimidation or worse.

As young adults, they pay a steep price for abandoning their parents and community to seek the freedom to make their own choices.

There will be a discussion with director Eric Scott following the film.
