Reviews of GETT: The Trial of Viviane Amsalem, Diplomacy and the documentaries Above and Beyond, about Jewish World War II pilots, and Watchers of the Sky.
Two recent films out of Israel—about women who worked alongside men on one of the first kibbutzim, and about the trauma of 2,000-plus years of exile for Jews.
Our current roundup of films includes documentaries on the charming Theodore Bikel and Turkish Jewish immigrant—and filmmaker—Altina Shinasi as well as movies about the modern Israeli experience.
