The Tattooed Torah

The Tattooed Torah

Based on Marvell Ginsburg’s beloved children’s book of the same name, THE TATTOOED TORAH recounts the true story of the rescue and restoration of a small Torah from Brno, Czechoslovakia. The animated film describes the Torah as the most “precious possession” of the Jewish people – a symbol that represents memories tied to cultural heritage, family, hope and resilience. Narrated by Ed Asner.
