The narrative of Joseph and his brothers contains contradictions that open up the depths of a history of pain. Read through the prism of midrash and of hassidic masters, as well as of Primo Levi, Paul Celan and Claude Lanzmann, the central question turns out to be: What happened to the light in Joseph's face? (Hybrid video DVD with supplementary materials.)
