Rashbi’s Secret
Synopsis
We have all heard of the tomb of Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai on Mount Meron, but many of us do not understand the appeal of the place and the meaning of the faith that causes hundreds of thousands of people to ascend to the tomb all year long. The film presents a poetic and intimate observation of this special place through a collection of authentic moments combined with the personal stories of several women who visit the place regularly.

Chechik did it big time… She managed to tell the story of the powerful atmosphere at the Grave of Rashbi and transfer it to the viewer.
