In this episode of Jewish futurism lab, host Mike Wirth sits down with Jewish filmmaker Noam Leibman, founder of Kavana Films, to explore how the camera can become a kind of kavannah practice in Jewish life.

They talk about Noam’s journey from Minnesota to Jerusalem, his work discovering and reconnecting Jewish communities in Africa, and the documentary project We Were Never Lost. Along the way, they look at clips from his Kavana Films YouTube channel and ask what it means to reveal our story one frame at a time, and what kinds of Jewish futures Noam dreams and hopes for in Israel and across the Jewish world.
