Full Description
"Take now your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains which I shall tell you." (Genesis 22:2) Filmmaker Dan Geva's surprising cinematic interpretation of Isaac's biblical sacrifice effectively captures an ancient, dusty moment erupting into the present.
