Naomi, the
brilliant and pious daughter of an ultra orthodox rabbi, finds herself at a
crossroads when her mother dies and she is expected to immediately marry her

allow her a year of study at a woman’s religious seminary in Safed, the
birthplace of the Kabala.
The Secrets presents the complexities of friendship

who lives nearby. An adult story of youth, rebellion and desire. Produced by
