Back in-person for the first time since 2019, the 2022 Israel Film Festival movies (and TV shows) restore a communal cinema and social experience to Israeli transplants and lovers of Israel.
We spoke with celebrities from the films, some filmmakers, a satellite-channel distributor, and a news publisher who discuss the complexity of getting these productions made and seen around the world.
Playlist (first one's upper right arrow activates menu) features: Mr. Omer Hazan from "Don't Wait for Me;"
Mr. Ehud Bleiberg, Producer of "Image of Victory;"
Ms. Agam Schuster from lesbian-parenting quest, "Two;"
Mr. David Suissa, publisher of The Jewish Journal of L.A. news magazine and website;
Ms. Daphna Ziman from CineMoi Satellite and Cable Channel;
Mr. Shimon Sheves, former Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin's Chief of Staff, now businessman. Mr. Sheves' mother lived in the Kibbutz Nitzanim featured in Ehud Bleiberg's "Image of Victory"
Mr. Mike Burstyn, director, "Azimuth," and foreign language dubbing chief for Netflix.
Plus a "the making of" promotional clip from "Berenshtein" filmmaker Roman Shumonov about the Berenshtein film produced by Ronen Machlis Balzam;
And, a conversation between Fest director, Meir Fenigstein and Mr. Balzam before an audience who just screened "Berenshtein."
