Story

Eruv documents life in an Orthodox-Jewish community in the American town of Teaneck. The community lives within an “eruv”, a wire symbolising a wall, which spans the entire neighbourhood and delineates a private zone that grants special rights during Shabbat. The film discloses a bizarre world in the middle of modern America.
