Shekinah Rising, the sequel to Shekinah: The Intimate Life of Hasidic Women, is a Canadian documentary produced in 2013, which explores the lives and attitudes of young Hasidic women at a Chabad-run seminary in Ste Agathe, Quebec.[2][3] The documentary covers the perspectives of the female students, as well as religious views of former students in Hasidic communities in London, Belgium and France . The film' was directed by Abbey Neidik and produced by Abbey Neidik and Irene Angelico of DLI Productions,[4][1][5] and Ina Fichman of Intuitive Pictures.

The filming of the documentary took four years to complete.[6] The film is described as an attempt to demonstrate how Hasidic women are not treated as "second-class citizens" in their community, and features Hasidic women pointing to customs that they would not agree to adhere to.[7] One scene in the first Shekinah film captures the persistence of anti-Semitism in Sainte-Agathe-des-Monts and the Hasidic effort to respond with outreach efforts.[6] One of the main characters in both films is Rebbetzin Chanie Carlebach, mother of twelve and the director of the Chabad seminary in Ste-Agathe.[8]: 43
