Talking to God

This film contains so many meaningful life messages. However, it never lectures or bores. There are lots of funny moments and I came out with a new outlook on how to live my life.

Maya Batash's film Talking to God is a truly enjoyable movie with an inspirational message that true happiness must come from within. Maya's journey to Uman and interaction with many eccentric characters keeps the audience entertained. And the film contains a true message about the importance of prayer but also how ones internal contentment is key to one being happy with their lot in life. I recommend this film.

Talking to God made me laugh and made me cry. But what it did most was helped me laugh my way into a mental-emotional-spiritual paradigm shift that opened my heart.

Be careful - it may do that to you too.

With a brilliant script and top level sound design and production Maya Batash grants the world access to the deepest secrets of Kabbalah and Hasidut with a gentle touch.

She has discovered the secret to true happiness in the fantastical tales of Rebbe Nachman and like any great doctor written a prescription that includes a spoon full of sugar to help us ingest and digest these new concepts as she retells the stories in a reality that we know.

Her portrayal of characters so absurd and exaggerated ironically makes them disarmingly relatable and human. And that's a whole lot of fun.

With all the the overstimulation and desensitization, Talking to God is a welcomed still strong voice that takes us back to basics. It's first and foremost a comedy about humanity - but then again - what is a human other than a biological being with a Divine soul and the potential for the consciousness to access it.

For me, this is a must watch, Probably at least once a month.

Kudos to Maya Batash on a well written and crafted journey of Faith. The characters are original, charming, and funny. The take away is inspiring and uplifting. A very novel film worth checking out for many laughs and a few thoughts on how to make the best out of every situation.

Such a lovely film full of joy from the acting to the music to the wonderfully enjoyable story with such charming characters. This film made me smile and laugh out loud. After watching it you will want to watch it again as I did.
