Praying with Lior - Trailer
Loading...
Uploaded by PrayingwithLior on Mar 11, 2008
An engrossing, wrenching and tender documentary film, PRAYING WITH LIOR introduces Lior Liebling, also called "the little rebbe." Lior has Down syndrome, and has spent his entire life praying with utter abandon. Is he a "spiritual genius" as many around him say? Or simply the vessel that contains everyone's unfulfilled wishes and expectations? Lior -- whose name means "my light" — lost his mother at age six, and her words and spirit hover over the film. While everyone agrees Lior is closer to God, he's also a burden, a best friend, an inspiration, and an embarrassment, depending on which family member is speaking. As Lior approaches Bar Mitzvah, the Jewish coming-of-age ceremony different characters provides a window into life spent "praying with Lior." The movie poses difficult questions such as what is "disability" and who really talks to God? Told with intimacy and humor, PRAYING WITH LIOR is a family story, a triumph story, a grief story, a divinely-inspired story.

In a world where genetic modification is not universally frowned upon and eugenics is seen as something to aspire to. It is refreshing to see inclusion, compassion and acceptance of children in society with special needs. We are indepted to care for the weaker elements of society such as the elderly and infirmed, to teach us responsibility and to stand in defence of the vulnerable, with such sacrifices God, is well pleased.

I can only hope to have the kavana that Lior has. I want to see this film to show my own children that it is possible to walk with G-d regardless of your challenges!
