Storyline

In the middle of the night, the beis din of a small medieval town is embroiled in an argument over whether – and how – to put teenage Gele to death for an unnamed offense. Her father, Ansel, soon arrives to make his case for allowing her to live, but his pleas fall on deaf ears. Meanwhile, Gele escapes and makes her way to the rabbi’s home, where the true horror of her supernatural transformation is revealed.
