This music video shows exclusive footage from Rubashkin's Game Plan, the long awaited documentary film focusing both on the Rubashkin case and dual reaction of anger and solidarity from the Jewish community following the harsh sentence handed down in the case.

The video, titled Yedid Nefesh, features an original composition by Danny Finkelman performed by Bentzi Marcus of 8th Day and Dovid Dachs. Yedid Nefesh features footage of the events that led up to the miscarriage of justice that is known as the Rubashkin case: Rubashkin's first arrest on charges of violating immigration and child labor laws, the largest immigration raid ever conducted in the United States at the Postville, Iowa Agriprocessors plant and Sholom Mordechai Rubashkin's second arrest on charges of financial fraud, resulting in an unusually harsh sentence of twenty seven years in prison.

The words "yedid nefesh" literally mean "a friend of the soul", a description that literally defines Sholom Mordechai Rubashkin, as he treated thousands of people he never even met as true friends, both in the way he conducted his business and his personal life. Yedid Nefesh focuses on the outrage, indignation and tremendous unity that has swept through the entire Jewish community in response to the case, which was perhaps, unknowingly, Sholom Rubashkin's ultimate Game Plan.

Song composed by Danny Finkelman
Musical production by Yitzhak Shemtov

  • @sspiegler Until you read up on the case u shouldn't write comments. If you would have read up, you would have found out that so much was already framed on him and he was found not guilty of, and that the other charges were probably part of that and also false.

  • @frumsatire Your outlook on everything Jewish is wrong, so your word can't be used!

  • when is Game Plan coming out?

    Bentzi & Dovid you did an over the top job!!

  • @davkanik Allow it ;-))

  • @sspiegler Agreed - but having a yid in prison is not a good thing. He is unfortunately a criminal if all the allegations are true. And obviously we will never know the true story. We just have to bee mispallel that he doesn't end up in prison. But in critique of this video - what in the world does the song have to do with him?!

  • Beautiful harmonies :-)) beautiful song Love the cool calm melodious voice of Bentzi

  • @MsThinkRationally -Actually murderers in other countries and even in the USA get less time. I feel for the fact that she now is raising her children alone and at least one of them is autistic.

  • @sspiegler -The issue is that the banks did not complain. I believe part of the problem was the illegal labor force there as well. Odd, as the government wants to give immunity to illegals now. No one is saying he should not be punished but 27 years is a very long time for this crime. He has also been held in solitary and denied religious articles that others should get. He was wrong. VERY WRONG but his sentence is outside the norm. He is not a hero but he is not Charles Mason either

  • is anything ok with you miss sspiegler??!! were is ur pitty on a pure jewish soul??? y on earth do u thing they r right 4 his sentencing...... u should be ashamed...and should just daven

  • Films I never finished viewing.
