Unorthodox

Based on the book by Deborah Feldman, this mini-series tells the story of Esty, a young woman that flees her sheltered life in a Hasidic Jewish community in New York. She flees to Berlin to begin a new life. 

There are some scenes that are triggering, or that might be hard to watch. 

The movie is a tale of women’s rights, feminism, and the desire to live an authentic life. 

Now streaming on Netflix, two stars.
