Filmmaker Barak Heymann Reflects on Israel’s Current Complex Reality (In-Person Only)

We are pleased to partner with the SF Jewish Film institute's WinterFest in presenting:

Barak Heymann—one of Israel’s most prolific and well-respected filmmakers—suffered personal losses in the October 7 Hamas attacks. Several of his close friends had parents and relatives murdered, and his high school classmate was killed in front of her children. Amidst all of the pain and rage, he is also in daily contact with friends in Gaza, including one woman who is fleeing from both Hamas and IDF fire. Through clips from over twenty years of work, he shares his perspective and those of the participants in his films as he grapples with Israel’s current complex reality.

Part 4 of our series: October 7th and the Israel-Gaza War: Behind and Beyond the News.
