ANGELICA

Documentary / Israel  / Hebrew with subtitles / 2019 / 75 minutes - Watch the trailer here

Produced by Golden Globe nominee Shlomi Elkabetz (Gett), this beguiling documentary poses fascinating questions about art and family. Boris Schatz’s main legacies were two of Israel’s most important institutions — The Israel Museum and The Bezalel Art Academy. Today, however, few remember the kidnapping of his daughter, Angelica. The discovery of letters along with paintings in an attic leads the film’s director, Angelica’s great-grandson, to investigate the aftermath of the kidnapping.  

Guest Speaker: SFSU Professor Eran Kaplan.
