Israel Through Film Continues At TBA

Cinema is big in Israel. Israelis love the movies and, for its size, Israel produces a lot of them. The selections, which will be shown @ Temple B’nai Abraham, 300 East Northfield Rd, Livingston, are all about 90 minutes long, in Hebrew with English subtitles and are little seen today. Rabbi Clifford Kulwin will introduce each screening and lead a discussion afterward. The next film in the series on Wednesday, November 18 , 7:00 PM, is Hill 24 Doesn’t Answer (1955). Often called Israel’s first feature film, and set during the War of Independence, the drama Hill 24 tells the tale of four young Israeli soldiers on the way to defend a strategic hill overlooking Jerusalem. It is a film based on a bold, patriotic theme. This film series is free and open to the community. Register online at www.tbanj.org or call 973.994.2290.
