Hineini (Hebrew for "Here I Am")
chronicles the story of one student's courageous fight to establish a
gay-straight alliance at a Jewish high school in the Boston area and the
transformative impact of her campaign on everyone involved. Beyond the
struggle to create a supportive environment for gay and lesbian students and
teachers at the school, this is the story of a community wrestling with the
very definition of pluralism and diversity in a Jewish context.
