UNORTHODOX EDUCATION premieres September 19 - October 2 at Cinema Village.
In New York, home to nearly half of the world’s Jewish population, tens of thousands of Jewish children in orthodox yeshivas are finishing school without being able to read or write in English. UNORTHODOX EDUCATION lifts the curtain on these communities, revealing the human cost of actively depriving kids of a secular education.

Work-in-progress screening of our documentary at Manhattan's Meyerson JCC September 26th at 7pm, followed by a Q&A and reception with producers and two people who appear in the film.
NEW: NYC has finished its investigation into Hasidic yeshivas and found that 18 schools are breaking the law by not providing a basic secular education.
Huge finding, not what yeshiva leaders hoped/expected to hear from Adams admin. w/ @brianmrosenthal

Readers of yesterday’s @nytimes expose of special education abuse who wanted to learn more about TTI, an online firm that provided dubious, if not fraudulent, educational degrees, were disappointed to find that a key link in the article was empty.

The Times story shows how some ultra-Orthodox use this army of poorly trained professionals to milk government programs to fund their schools. If public schools get government funding, they figure, why shouldn’t they?
