This Sunday an extraordinary documentary will air on Boston’s ABC affiliate channel 5 at 2:00 p.m. I Believe You is a courageous exploration of domestic violence and faith. How does one’s faith influence how one responds to being abused? What is the response victims of domestic violence receive when turning to their faith leaders? And how can a faith-based ritual, such as mikveh, support survivors of domestic abuse? Diva Communications has taken the time to explore these questions with integrity, sensitivity, and care. Journey to Safety was proud to partner with Mayyim Hayyim and support filmmakers David Vinik and Debra Gonsher Vinik’s filmmaking. With amazing tenacity they traveled around the country listening and documenting real stories about domestic abuse, religion, and different faiths.
