Erev Yom Kippur at the Western Wall: Where was God on October 7?

Miron Shason embarked on a documentary project at the Western Wall plaza as part of the podcast "Ad HaKatz" with Keren Neubach, meeting grooms, soldiers returning from the inferno, a 99-year-old Holocaust survivor, and young people searching for meaning. The episode examines what Israelis pray for after three years of war, what they ask for, and what they feel before the ancient stones, while reflecting on Yom Kippur's place as a bastion of Israeli consensus.

Miron Shason set out on a special documentary project at the Western Wall plaza, as part of the new episode of the podcast "Ad HaKatz" with Keren Neubach. The project explores the central question: what are we looking for when we come to the Wall? Shason met excited grooms, soldiers returning from the inferno, a 99-year-old Holocaust survivor, and young people trying to understand what they believe in. The episode documents the prayers and requests of Israelis after three years of war, and the feelings that arise before the ancient stones. The article notes that in the fractured Israeli reality, where spaces of agreement are shrinking, Yom Kippur still maintains a special status as a consensus of 25 hours of silence, whether fasting or not.
