Directed by: Erin Axelman & Sam Eilertsen, 2023, 84 min., language: en, starring: Simone Zimmerman, Eitan, Noam Chomsky
Two young American Jews travel to Israel seeking a deeper understanding of the country they were raised to love. What they encounter profoundly impacts them, leading them to join a growing movement to redefine their community’s relationship with Israel in this challenging and emotional journey. They join a movement of young American Jews fighting against the old guard to redefine Judaism’s relationship to Israel, and expose a deepening generational schism over modern Jewish identity.
Directed by two Jewish filmmakers who share a similar story to the film’s protagonists, the film uniquely explores how Jewish attitudes toward Israel are changing dramatically, with enormous implications for the region and for Judaism itself.
