Nina Paley (Sita Sings the Blues, VIFF 08) goes for broke with this imaginative, irreverent take on the Exodus narrative. Her framework is the traditional Passover Seder—a ritual in which family members retell the story of the Israelites’ liberation. The tale is told to her by her own father, who occupies the role of God, as well as by Moses, Jesus and other big names in the Judeo-Christian tradition… Expect to be surprised, amused and moved; this is a feast for the eyes and much more besides…
