Rosh Hashanah: The Day of Judgement

Hosted by award-winning Canadian broadcast journalist Ralph Benmergui, this documentary investigates the symbolic meaning of the many customs and traditions associated with the holiday, such as the blowing of the ram’s horn, or shofar. It also features insightful interviews with rabbis, community leaders, religious scholars and others – including a surprise cameo by Seinfeld’s “Soup Nazi”, actor Larry Thomas – who explain what Rosh Hashanah means to them, and how they strive to answer its call to action.
