HaSodot

Two brilliant young women discover their own voices in a repressive orthodox culture where females are forbidden to sing, let alone speak out. Naomi, the studious, devoutly religious daughter of a Rabbi, convinces her father to postpone her marriage for a year so that she might study at a Jewish seminary for women in the ancient Kabalistic seat of Safed. Her quest for individuality takes a defiant turn when she befriends Michelle, a free-spirited and equally headstrong fellow student. (imdb)
