{Holy Rollers}
A few weeks back I got a screeners copy (along with a huge stack of production notes) for Holy Rollers and I accidentally buried it under a pile of magazines, only to be found over the weekend. Thank god I did, I highly recommend this one!
Holy Rollers is inspired by actual events in the late nineties when Hasidic Jews were recruited as mules to smuggle ecstasy from Europe into the United States. Sam Gold (Jesse Eisenberg), a young Hasid from an Orthodox Brooklyn community reluctantly follows the path his family has chosen for him, awaiting a pending arranged marriage and studying to become a Rabbi, when a neighbor approaches him about a job.
The film stars: Jesse Eisenberg, Justin Bartha, Ari Graynor, Danny A. Abeckaser, Q-Tip, Elizabeth Marvel, and Jason Fuchs. Holy Rollers is now playing in select theaters.
