Born into a Hassidic Jewish family in post-World War II Brooklyn, Asher Lev is a young artist torn between his observant religious community and his need to create. His artistic genius threatens his relationship with his parents and insular community and weighs heavily on his conscience. A poignant and elegant drama exploring the questions of art, family, religion and loyalty, this extraordinary adaptation of Chaim Potok’s visionary novel is a powerful look at the cost of individuality.

This production contains mature themes of faith and religion.
