The film, which focuses on the Hebrew program lead by Ori Kritz at the University of Oklahoma, showed at Bare Bones, SMMASH, and B'nai Emunah in Tulsa. Trailer features music performed by Daniel Perna and Shay Rabineau. The Hebrew Project screened over the High Holy Days in 2009 on The Jewish Channel. Prior to the arrival of Professors Ori Kritz and Lea Reches, Hebrew was taught under the Classics department by professors of History. Originally, only two levels of biblical Hebrew existed at the University. The Judaic Studies program increased that to three levels of Modern Hebrew. In 2003, professor Ori Kritz arrived, bringing with her the unique dedication needed to launch the study of the language into a full-fledged program. Together with Lea Reches and some very dedicated students, the program expanded and continues to grow. The original students developed a companionship with their professor and a great love for the language and history surrounding it. This is their story.
