Nina wants to be the one who completes the Minyan in her father memorial. After her religious mom turns her down she has no choice and invites a stranger from a dating app. when a Christian barge in to the Jewish memorial Nina doesn't blink twice and continues the ceremony.

Hoping to say Kaddish after their mother's death, Leah and Ariel find themselves one person short of making a Minyan-a quorum of ten Jewish adults required for evening prayer service. As a result, they turn to an unconventional solution via a friendly stranger.

The dying Jewish community of Glace Bay, Nova Scotia, so small it can't always raise a minyan (the required quorum of ten men for prayer services) is profiled, warts and all, in this fascinating time capsule. Their children have left for Montreal, Toronto and Halifax and now only the older people remain keeping the spark of Jewishness alive. Their attitudes, including not allowing women into the minyan, and their feelings about the imminent demise of their community, contribute to a poignant portrait of a Jewish world that will soon exist only in memory.

Djeneba is a mother of nine children living in Kadioloko, southern Mali. Since her husband left the family some years ago Djeneba and her children manage the family’s millet fields without him. Recently the eldest boy, Madou, has brought his new wife, Lidy, into the family group. In this film we explore daily life in the compound as Djeneba assumes full responsibility for her family’s needs. Filmmaker, Bata Diallo, herself a Malian, engages Djeneba’s life-world in observational style and by way of intimate conversations. As well as the family we meet Nono, the old chief of Kadioloko. He’s a good friend of Djeneba and a renowned local philosopher with a wry world-view and a sense of humour to match. Djeneba and her family are from the agriculturalist Minyaka ethnic group but we also get to know some Fulani pastoralists who share the village of Kadioloko. “Djeneba” is an hour-long chronicle of quotidian life in rural Mali from a woman’s point of view.
