A Life Apart: Hasidism in America. Full Description. The Hasidic movement started in 18th-century Europe, stressing joy and ecstatic faith, in opposition to the orthodoxy of the time. This is the first documentary to present an in-depth, historically accurate portrait of America's Hasidic community.
