    A Rabbi is about to discover that following his dreams can be rather unorthodox.

    When a Tango dancer (Karina Smirnoff) asks a Rabbi Moshe (Jos Laniado) to enter a dance competition with her, there’s one big problem — due to his Orthodox beliefs, he’s not allowed to touch her!  But the prize money would save his school from bankruptcy.

    As they develop a plan to enter the competition without sacrificing his faith, Rabbi Moshe enlists the guidance of some surprising individuals while also handing the upcoming marriage of his brother (Claudio Laniado), the dueling mother-in-laws (Renée Taylor, Lainie Kazan), and his questioning wife (Judi Beecher).

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
