Rabbi Capoeira

How does a shy ultra-Orthodox man become a world champion in Capoeira, and how does the ultra-Orthodox community in his hometown of Bnei Brak react to the revolution? Capoeira, a martial art combining dance, acrobatics, and music, developed hundreds of years ago by enslaved people in Brazil, seems to be the complete opposite of the ultra-Orthodox way of life that defines Bnei Brak. Yet, one young man has made it his life's mission to unite these two worlds. **RABBI CAPOEIRA** tells the incredible journey of Miki Hayat, who achieves the impossible.
