Jewish identity is as complex as is the history of the Jewish people. So, who better could make a film about it? The short film The Tribe has its own funny way of doing just that: by studying the history of the Barbie doll that was invented by a Jewish lady and tracing back the Jews and their ways from Biblical times until now. What does ‘being a Jew’ mean today and what is ‘an American Jew’?
