Can an ancient community resist modern temptations in the heart of Australia?

Intriguing, vibrant, and deeply moving, Strictly Jewish offers a rare glimpse into a devout and mystical community within Jewish Australia, showcasing a unique world that has preserved its traditions and values amid the influences of modern life. This documentary explores a subculture that has, in many ways, become a time capsule, resisting the push of modernity to maintain a lifestyle rooted in centuriesold European traditions.

In this eyeopening journey, viewers witness how this insular community navigates the boundaries of technology, carefully drawing lines between what is and isn’t permissible in their daily lives. Despite living in a multicultural society, members of the Adass Jewish community consider themselves distinctly separate from mainstream Australian culture. As society grows more interconnected through the wifi world, Strictly Jewish reveals how this community stands firm, holding fast to its values and traditions, providing a reflection on cultural preservation in the 21st century."
