BARREN

A story of secrets, trust, love, and faith. This provocative and beautifully acted drama takes viewers deep into the world of a loving ultra-Orthodox couple in Safed who are infertile after four years of marriage. They reject exploring medical advice, seeking spiritual options instead. Meanwhile, the man’s father brings a visiting rabbi into their home who claims to have healing powers – and this spirals into a story of heartbreaking ethical and religious dilemmas that demand discussion.
