Excerpt: Bee Season is a 2005 feature film based on the 2000 novel by Myla Goldberg. The film was directed by Scott McGehee and David Siegel and written by Naomi Foner. It stars Richard Gere and Juliette Binoche. Plot Saul Naumann (Gere ) is a somewhat controlling Jewish husband and father. A Religious Studies professor at UC Berkeley, Saul wrote his graduate thesis on the Kabbalah. A devout Jew, his wife Miriam (Binoche ) converted to Judaism when they married, and he nurtured his son Aaron (Minghella ) into a traditional studious Jew like him. When Eliza (Cross ) wins her class spelling bee, they embark on a course of Kabbalah study to help her win. The film follows the family and the spiritual quests upon which they journey, in large part because of Saul: Miriam's attempt to make herself whole, Aaron's religious uncertainty, and Eliza's desire to be closer to her father. The regional bee is filmed at the Albany High school gym. Miriam lives a secret life throughout her entire marriage to Saul, trying to fulfill the religious idea she learned from him, tikkun olam, or "repairing the world" and "reuniting its shards." She takes this meaning literally and slowly collects trinkets she finds beautiful Books, , Films-set-in-the-San-Francisco-Bay-Area~~Source-Source-Wikipedia, , , , , , , , , , General Books LLC<
