Sheva, Sarah, and Tali were inseparable as children, but have long since been estranged. A decade after their friendship ended, they reunite for one night in the Brooklyn of their youth that forces them to confront the events that tore them apart. Very effectively moving between three different periods in their lives, the film traces the evolution of their friendship — from happy childhood memories to the fallout that changed everything. Featuring outstanding performances by Tony and Grammy Award nominee Micaela Diamond (tick, tick… BOOM!) and SAG Award winner Alysia Reiner (FX’s Better Things), Our Bodies & Other Shames is a Sundance Lab finalist that marks an impressive feature debut for director Jenny Lester and writer/producer Malka Wallick.

Part of the NextGen Series sponsored by The Canadian Jewish News.
