Torah and Animation 

with 

Hanan Harchol

This month's topic is
The Importance of HAPPINESS during Challenging Times
Study Link for Happiness Part Three

We present this animation trilogy aware that this topic may feel difficult or inappropriate for many. And yet, our tradition frequently acknowledges that as a community and as individuals, we often hold more than one emotion at any given moment. In addition, many argue that during challenging times, joy is more important than ever.

 

Hanan Harchol is a New York based filmmaker, animator, artist, classical guitarist, and teacher.

Hanan's animated series Jewish Food For Thought, which is generously funded by The Covenant Foundation, teaches Jewish ethics through thought-provoking animated conversations between Hanan and his Israeli parents, and is used as an educational resource by countless schools and synagogues across the country.
Hanan has also been invited to present his work at Jewish educational conferences across the country and in the UK.
