I'm in the home stretch now with the production of GER. There was quite a bit of controversy at the beginning of filming, while looking for participants. Some Orthodox community members thought that filming converts from different movements would be like filming apples and oranges, because they didn't recognize converts from other movements.

Since that confrontation I have changed my focus to a small segment of Reform, or Reform leaning, converts -- Queer Jews. I really have to thank the people who were so against the making of this film about conversion. I feel like I would never have narrowed the focus if I hadn't been pushed to the fringes. Of course there is the fact that most of my friends are Queer Jews, and I run in circles with a lot of Jews by Choice who are also LGBT or Queer.

On another note as the closing of AGENCY is a month away, another chapter in my television production career is opening. Etz Chaim will be taking the place of AGENCY, and running twice a month on the 1st and 3rd Sunday at 6 PM. Etz Chaim will be a chat show about Queer interpretations of Torah, and Rabbinical Texts.
