The documentary ISRAELISM has been touring North America and, recently, Europe, generating awareness and dialogue. On June 1st, it will premiere in Sechelt at the Sunshine Coast Arts Council (5714 Medusa St., Sechelt, BC). Join us at 4 pm for a screening, followed by a live Q & A facilitated by Avi Lewis. Tickets are by donation. Stay tuned for pre-ticket details.
Directed by two first-time Jewish filmmakers, ISRAELISM “uniquely explores how Jewish attitudes towards Israel are changing dramatically, with massive consequences for the region and for Judaism itself.
“When two young American Jews raised to unconditionally love Israel witness the brutal way Israel treats Palestinians, their lives take sharp left turns.
They join a movement of young American Jews battling the old guard to redefine Judaism’s relationship with Israel, revealing a deepening generational divide over modern Jewish identity.”
