When a policewoman suddenly recognizes her husband who has been AWOL for years, she takes an odd assortment of local onlookers hostage, threatening to kill them if she is not issued a divorce immediately. Anat Waxman gives one of her strongest performances in this unusual look at the conflict between religious law and modern Jewish life. Written by
