FILM: Amos Oz: The Nature of Dreams

Inspired by his memoir A Tale of Love and Darkness, this eloquent documentary opens a window into the mind of one of Israel's most acclaimed and controversial authors, Amos Oz. Often noted as a voice of reason and compassion, and a staunch advocate of peaceful coexistence between Israelis and Palestinians, Oz has been at the forefront of Israel's struggle for identity. Cameras follow over a twoyear period as Oz walks the hilltops of Jerusalem to the streets of Tel Aviv, travels on an international book tour, meets with readers and esteemed colleagues, and dispatches advice to political leaders, while continuously musing on the complicated meanings of Zionism and its imprint on his personal biography. AMOS OZ: THE NATURE OF DREAMS is a poetic and intimate portrait of an intellectual whose keen insight illuminates a nation forged in the crucible of a difficult, painful history.
