Israeli film expert Galit Roichman will lead this one-hour discussion using the film The Band’s Visit to give a glimpse into Israeli society.
Using scenes from the film, Galit will explain how this story of an Egyptian band visiting a sleepy Israeli city teaches us something about life in the Middle East, neighborly relationships, and optimism as a way of life.
A graduate of Tel Aviv University with a master’s degree in film, Galit is a screenwriter who has also worked extensively as an informal Jewish educator in Israel and the Diaspora.
There is no need to see the movie ahead of time.
