«M» comme Menahem, enfant prodige à la voix d’or, abusé par des membres de sa communauté qui l’adulait. Quinze ans après il revient à la recherche des coupables, dans son quartier natal de Bnei Brak, capitale mondiale des Juifs ultra-orthodoxes. Mais c’est aussi le retour dans un monde qu’il a tant aimé, dans un chemin où la parole se libère… une réconciliation.

Exceptionally, I won't be giving this film a numerical ranking as I don't feel comfortable quantifying this man's pain. Because, essentially that's what _M_ is: The story of one man's pain and how he comes to terms with it. M is Menahem who, when he was the Jewish version of a choir boy in the ultra religious Israeli town of Bnei Brak, was raped repeatedly by different Rabbis and members of his yeshiva. While I personally would've appreciated seeing this film attempt to give an overall snapshot of how prevalent this is (the film gives the impression that it is frighteningly wide-spread) and what is being done to address this crisis (the film gives only a few pithy sentences of reassurance at the end), I'm obviously happy that the documentary helped Menahem confront and even slay several of his demons.
