The Tribe, 2005. Tiffany Shlain:
Director, Producer, Co-Writer.
The Tribe
"An unorthodox, unauthorized history of the Jewish people
and the Barbie doll...in about 15 minutes."
"What can the most successful doll on the planet show us about being Jewish today? Narrated by Peter Coyote, the film mixes old school narration with a new school visual style. The Tribe weaves together archival footage, graphics, animation, Barbie dioramas, and slam poetry to take audiences on an electric ride through the complex history of both the Barbie doll and the Jewish people- from Biblical times to present day. By tracing Barbie’s history, the film sheds light on what it means to be an American Jew in the 21st Century."
