Yom HaAtzma’ut Film Club - Blue Box (19:30)
Join us for a special Film Club for Yom HaAtzma’ut, delving into the nuances of Israel’s complex history with the film ‘Blue Box’. The JNF's Blue Boxes were part of a successful fundraising campaign to support the purchase of land in Palestine. Joseph Weitz was the man who orchestrated the acquisition and expropriation of Palestinian lands.
This film, made by his great-granddaughter, offers a stark contrast between the myth and the multi-layered reality of Israel. The screening will be followed by viewing of a filmed Q&A with the filmmaker, Michal Weits. Tea, coffee, and snacks will be provided. This film is in Hebrew with English subtitles.
