In her first documentary film, Simcha Esther (Shari) Gershan captures her incredible story of personal growth, inner healing, and spiritual connection in the face of life threatening illness.
Diagnosed with Stage Four Lung Cancer, Simcha Esther, a vivacious mother of 4 young children, embarks on a relentless quest to heal her life. Her story takes her through a rich and rewarding journey that follows her from the depths of despair to the heights of joy. Inspiring thousands worldwide to join her odyssey through an online chronicle of her experience, she discovers a profound relationship with herself, humanity and G-d.
The film offers a rare glimpse into the hidden world of Orthodox Judaism and particularly into the inner life of an Orthodox woman. Set against the backdrop of the NY Metro area, the feature length documentary, created by Simcha Esther and independent filmmaker Tsvika Tal, captures the journey as Simcha Esther transforms her life, her community and the cancer experience itself through humor, creativity and insight. Her raw authenticity and joie de vie inspires thousands of people to join her as she navigates the physical, emotional, and spiritual pathways to G-d, to growth and to true healing.
In a world thirsting for hope, inspiration, and spiritual connection, this film highlights the courageous story of one woman and her lifeline to Heaven. Anyone whose life is touched by cancer or any serious challenge can't help but be left uplifted and inspired.
