“Blessing of the Sun,” the newest release from Jewish Educational Media, presents the historic 1981 gathering outside Lubavitch World Headquarters, where thousands of men, women and children blessed G-d for creating the sun.

Editors spent an average of two hours for each minute of restored footage, which was gleaned from a stock of professional and amateur film and video.

The footage was made available through JEM’s Living Archive Restoration & Preservation Project.
