A Belfast Jewish Story

The Last Minyan tells the story of the disappearing world of the Belfast Jewish community, as seen from the inside. Film-maker Aaron Black observes the ageing community as it struggles to gather the ten men or Minyan needed for a prayer service. The film explores the reasons why keeping the synagogue open and the community going is so important to those who remain.
