Syn­op­sis

EXIT is a film about two women who left the ultra-ortho­dox com­mu­ni­ty. Sara Mur­ray became ultra-ortho­dox at the age of 17 when she moved to Israel from the US and met her future hus­band. She lived a strong­ly reli­gious and ded­i­cat­ed life until she could­n’t han­dle the rigid­ness of her faith any­more. Leav­ing the ultra-oth­o­dox world, she lost all her chil­dren who she can now only meet 2 hours a week in a day care cen­ter watched by Rab­bini­cal social work­ers.
