A World to Come

This colorful animated story about reincarnation is based on a Jewish midrash (Biblical storytelling).  A World to Come is a rhyming tale about two babies (or souls) living in a mysterious world with a heavenly angel. They discuss life and the hereafter. When their world comes to an abrupt end, we discover that what happens next is only a beautiful new beginning.

Shown with L.A. Mohel, Purim, GOD@heaven
