Gut Shabbes Vietnam follows the Hartmans and their infant son as they leave Israel for a frantic and exuberant life in Ho Chi Minh City. The search for a real Jewish community in Vietnam is also a point of contention – as they soon discover that the local Jews are only marginally interested in a Jewish connection. In the face of much uncertainty, Gut Shabbes Vietnam allows a unique glimpse into their singular undertaking – and a view of those who take on the responsibility “of bringing the Messiah.”
