Sacred Sperm Trailers

The film creates a daring first exposure on the way parents, rabbis, teachers, pedagogues and therapists within the Orthodox Hasidic Jewish Community educating their male children from infancy to adolescence, to avoid spilling their sperm. They target them to keep their seed only after marriage with a female for the purpose of fertilization. "Sacred Sperm" penetrates into one of the most suppressed hidden issues in the Orthodox Hasidic Jewish Community - a Taboo. Throughout the film we follow the emotional and theological struggle of the director who is trying to find a proper way as a father to explain his teenager son logically why he should keep this major Mitzvah (commandment) which perceived by many as unreasonable and seems impossible to fulfill.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

Sacred sperm it is a great job: very deep, rich in experiences, but at the same time respectful A courageous documentary; a deep sight into a sensitive subject. Through different voices and experiences, the author deepens the practical and spiritual dimension of one of most sensitive issues in moral law - a theme it is not easy to approach, even in other societies. A wise and smart creation that overcome the risk of heavy or moralistic explanations, rather, a new language to offer the meaning of religious ethical behaviors, involving one of most intimate dimensions of person.
