An Israeli production. A New Spirit is a gripping movie inspired by the autobiography Why Me? by Jacob Damkani. Jacob’s story illustrates a journey where crime and betrayal, pride and disappointment, bruises and brokenness, do not have the last word. When God steps in, everything changes. Jacob is given a new heart and a new spirit and his life is drastically transformed – to one where faith, hope and love yield to a life of purpose and much excitement. From a proud and willful young Jew in Israel, to living the American dream, and finally to a victorious surrender, this is an inspiring account of what it truly means to be a Jew. A New Spirit is a Hebrew/English movie.
