Join the Institute on Tuesday, October 22, at 7:00 PM for an in-person screening of Israeli film Delegation, introduced by IIJS Film Programmer Stuart Weinstock. Prof. Weinstock will also lead an audience discussion after the screening.
Delegation dramatizes a common Israeli rite of passage: the high school class trip to Holocaust memorial sites in Poland before teenagers begin their IDF service. On this particular trip, shy boy Frisch, aspiring artist Nitzan, and class heartthrob Ido struggle with love, friendship, and politics in the crucible of a busy itinerary through traumatic history. Their experiences are both universally teenage and uniquely Israeli.
(105 minutes; English, Hebrew, and Polish with English subtitles)
