13TH ANNUAL SEATTLE JEWISH FILM FESTIVAL
CHILDREN OF THE SUN
(Israel 2007, 70 Minutes, Hebrew, Family Friendly (age 10+)
Cinerama: Sunday, April 6th, 3:30 PM
Topics: Zionism, Kibbutz Movement, Israeli History, Personal Narrative
Children of the first kibbutzim in Israel were born in the early 20th century to youthful parents, full of hope. They have been called Children of the Sun, because they considered them children of the Sun of Nations Revolution in Israel. They were born into a utopia and were destined to become new citizens for the common good and life of equality. Rare footage was shot at the kibbutzim between 1930 and 1970, rare recordings and conversations with family and friends. The tapestry of rare materials from which the film is compiled creates both a very personal and very public story, a form of super story about one of the most fascinating myths of the Zionist movement in the Land of Israel.
Post-film Panel Discussion: "Israel@60: Kibbutzim Dream," moderated by Professor Gad Barzilai (UW)
