Sabbath Queen

Sabbath Queen (USA, 2024), a feature documentary filmed over 21 years, follows Rabbi Amichai Lau-Lavie’s epic journey as the dynastic heir of 38 generations of Orthodox rabbis including the Chief Rabbis of Israel. He is torn between rejecting and embracing his destiny and becomes a drag-queen rebel, a queer bio-dad and the founder of Lab/Shul—an everybody-friendly, God-optional, artist-driven, pop-up experimental congregation. Sabbath Queen, directed and produced by Sandi DuBowski, joins Amichai on a lifelong quest to creatively and radically reinvent religion and ritual, challenge patriarchy and supremacy, champion interfaith love, and stand up for peace and ceasefire in Israel/Palestine.

The film screening is followed by a Q&A with director Sandi DuBowski and filmmaker and journalist Eva Gemmer.

Language: English, Hebrew, Yiddish with English subtitles. The Q&A session will be held in English.

No registration necessary.
