Holy Rollers is a new release of 2010 that is based on the participation of orthodox Jewish citizens of New York in the smuggling of ecstasy from Europe into the United States. With this true situation as a foundation, the film explores the involvement of a young Hasid named Sam Gold, a completely fictional character.
The main character is Sam Gold, a young Hasidic Jew who has been raised in Brooklyn in the orthodox tradition. Although his father is in business, Sam is destined to become a rabbi and make his fortune by marrying the daughter of a wealthy family in a match arranged by his father.
Sam is a young man nearing the future orchestrated by his family - becoming a Rabbi and marrying into a wealthy family that agrees to improve his fortunes for the honor of having a rabbi in the family. Sam, however, finds that he is more interested in the family business than in the continual study and devotion to religion that his life entails.
Although his friend recoils from the truth that they have been used as mules for the drug dealers, and the 'medicine' is actually an illegal chemical, Sam has been intrigued by the glimpses he has gotten of a totally different world. One boy goes back to rabbinical studies, while the other goes on with the smuggling.
Sam begins to form new relationships with the drug underworld as he lives a double life. His business instincts prove valuable and are applauded by his Israeli dealer, and he is attracted by the man's troubled girl friend. Eventually Sam himself is recruiting the innocent and experimenting with the drug he smuggles.
Sam is unable to keep his clandestine activities from his family and his community. As the life of his childhood unravels, he becomes closer to the new people in his life, only to realize that they are embroiled in conflict and despair that he cannot resolve. His own conflict is whether to turn back to the old life or continue down a road he now knows leads to destruction.
The decisions the maturing youth must make, and the dangers he faces as he does so, are the climax of this emotional thriller. It is rated R and has received both good and bad reviews in almost equal number; more of those who have seen it give it a thumbs up than the number of those who do not recommend it.
The name of the drug is the key to the title of the film. This was a derisive term coined to describe pentecostal Christians who become ecstatic during worship, which is now sometimes used proudly by the very ones it was meant to mock. Users of the street drug seek to attain a state of euphoria by using an illegal chemical.
Holy Rollers the movie stars Jesse Eisenberg as the troubled young Jew learning to make his own choices and control his own future.
