Heidi Ewing & Rachel Grady On Their Documentary, "One of Us"

In "One of Us," Oscar-nominated documentarians Heidi Ewing and Rachel Grady explore the insular world of New York's Hasidic community, focusing on three individuals driven to break away despite threats of retaliation. The film follows Etty, a mother of seven, as she decides to leave a violent marriage and divorce her husband; Ari, a teenager on the verge of manhood who is struggling with addiction and the effects of childhood abuse; and Luzer, an actor who, despite having found success in the secular world, still wrestles with his decision eight years earlier to leave the Hasidic community. Ewing and Grady joined us at BUILD to discuss the documentary.
