Ushpizin

This is a movie about an Orthodox Jewish couple living in Jerusalem in the present time. If you would enjoy a film that has something powerful and positive to say about faith in God and prayer and righteousness, you will enjoy it. It's available at Movie Gallery in Plainfield or from Amazon.
