This is the incredible true story of Matt and ‪Yael Trusch, who each found their Jewish identity in the most unexpected places… and ultimately found each other. Once a rising actor in Chinese television, Matt was living a life of glamor and fame. But a chance encounter with a Chabad rabbi in Shanghai turned his life upside down — or rather, right-side up. Yael, a powerhouse in the world of finance, was climbing the corporate ladder in New York and Miami, until a deeper calling led her to explore Torah, Shabbat, and building a meaningful Jewish life. This is not just their story — it’s a story for every Jew.
