Seven Endearing Movies from Israel




« back to classes page
ClassGraphic There is a phrase in Hebrew, "Yisrael HaYaffa,"  or Beautiful Israel, which is used to describe the softer side of life in the country. The seven films we have chosen are for the most part tenderhearted and touching; two or three are very funny as well. Some of the movies refer to Israel's early days and others to more modern times. The movies are relatively unknown (some almost forgotten), but they are gems. The seven movies are: Over the Ocean; An Israeli Love Story; The Little Traitor; Aviya's Summer; The Band's Visit; Fill the Void; and Noodle. After watching these films together, we will discuss our insights, adding to the enjoyment and understanding of these heart-felt movies. Please join us for this informative and enriching experience.
