Dara (USA: IA) (2022/02/07):
Deborah grew up in the Hasidic community of Williamsburg, Brooklyn New York. Even as child she longs for the freedom her religion prevents her from experiencing such as dressing fashionably and reading books. Deborah was raised by her religious grandparents. Her father suffered from mental illness and her mother abandoned her family. She attends a private Jewish school and all of her classmates seem to have more than she does. When she graduates, she becomes a teacher in a Jewish school teaching sixth grade. After about a year, she is matched with a religious Jew and they marry. There are many problems in the marriage as Deborah still longs for being able to read what she wants and to get an education. To find out more about Deborah’s story read the book and watch the movie “Unorthodox” on Netflix.
