Synopsis

How do we reengage the disengaged? This challenging question confronts religious institutions across the country, and documentary “Restoring Tomorrow” seeks to answer – in cinemas Tuesday, November 13 at 7:00 p.m. local time. “Restoring Tomorrow” tells a universal story of hope, as it focuses on a landmark house of worship that was literally crumbling and a community’s against-all-odds determination to restore it to new greatness. Told through the eyes of filmmaker Aaron Wolf who, like so many other young people, had lost connection to his faith, but, in documenting the struggle and ultimate triumph of the restoration, he finds that he himself is restored. The film illuminates a path back to meaning and spiritual connection that can be followed by countless others of his disaffected generation. Following the event, audiences will join Aaron and some of America’s most dynamic religious and community leaders for a dialogue about what comes next.

Touching, if by-the-books, documentary.

Wilshire Boulevard Temple’s hard-won renaissance, as chronicled in Aaron Wolf’s fondly crafted documentary, proves to be a vigorous affirmation of the vitality of Jewish tradition in Los Angeles that will fascinate the faithful and enlighten the curious.

A bit slick, especially in its last half hour, Restoring Tomorrow nevertheless hits its emotional marks in reporting the renaissance of an important community institution, and Wolf’s personal connection to the subject elevates what may have simply been a well-made promotional film.
