Shira Haas on Creating Empathy Through Art, Unorthodox, And Her Newest Film Asia

Shira Haas is an Israeli-born, Emmy-nominated actress who dominated our quarantine screens through her career-defining performance as Esty Shapiro in Netflix’s Unorthodox. At just 26-years-old, she’s garnered international success - but she’s no stranger to critical acclaim. She earned her first Ophir Award (Israel’s equivalent of the Academy Awards) at 19-years-old with her debut role in “Princess” - a role that she landed through a message on Facebook. And just last April, she won Best International Actress at the Tribeca Film Festival for her latest role as the lead in “Asia,” a film where she plays a young teen facing her own mortality because of an illness while also finding a connection with her mother, Asia, before it's too late. We met up in New York City to celebrate the premiere and chat about her decade long career journey, how she sees art gateway to empathy, and her best tips for becoming an actress. Love the show?

Wounded Warriors of the Cross Gary Pastoral and clergy mental health is a mostly ignored area, especially by those who live their lives as pastors in the clergy. The stigma of mental health within those who serve in the shadow of the cross is something that invokes the stigma of fear. Many of those in the clergy will choose to suffer in their despair rather than reaching out for help. Sometimes those suffering choose to wait until it's too late to get the real help that they need. At Wounded Warriors of the Cross our mission is to lift the stigma and the veil of silence that encompasses clergy mental health and assist those who suffer in silence. Wounded Warriors of the Cross is here to shed the light of Christ's love into those dark places.
