About the film
Praying with Lior is a 2008 documentary about a Jewish boy, Lior, who has Down syndrome. The film follows Lior and his family as they prepare for Lior's bar mitzvah. Lior is the son of Rabbi Mordechai Liebling and Rabbi Devorah Bartnoff.
Devorah died when Lior was six, and her memory infuses Lior's spirituality and his preparation for his bar mitzvah.
