Trailblazing Women Who Made Texas Jewish History

Grit & Grace is a feature length documentary that transcends the traditional Texas historical narrative, exploring the impact of forward thinking and influential Jewish women who, in their own way, worked to make life better for all in the Lone Star State. It is a meditation on the delicate and often complicated dance of female, Jewish and Texan identities.

The state of Texas is vast and wide.  Stetsons, longhorns, windmills, and wildflowers dot the landscape.  Synagogues, torahs and menorahs, not so much.  Yet since the days of the Republic, in every corner of the Lone Star State, there have been smart and determined Jewish women uniting these seemingly disparate cultural elements. These are the stories of those remarkable women. These are stories of Grit & Grace.
