The Lost Minyan
Between 1391 and 1492 a substantial number of Spains Jewish community converted to Catholicism, either voluntarily or through physical or psychological coercion. In 1478 Spain established an Inquisition to induce individuals to recant their heretical beliefs and adhere to orthodox Christian practices. To encourage individuals to do so the punishment of sinners was made into a public, exemplary event. The Lost Minyan profiles ten crypto-Jewish families in the throes of coping with the trauma of living between worlds, neither wholly Catholic nor wholly Jewish.
