Lectures, Courses & Their Recordings 2025 Below are the lectures, talks, and courses we presented in 2025, with links to their recordings on YouTube. Enjoy ! Q&A with the director of The Road to Recovery Recorded July 2025 Udi Ben Seadia Udi Ben Seadia accompanied his film, The Road to Recovery for an insightful Q&A session. He is a writer and theater director who has been volunteering to drive Palestinian patients from border checkpoints to hospitals in Israel. Now, he is turning his experience into a documentary, exploring not just the journey he has facilitated, but the questions that they raise. Rather than finding answers, he encounters only complexities--questions of whether reconciliation between Israelis and Palestinians is even possible in the wake of the events of October 7, 2023. Watch now Love Gets a Room Recorded May 2025 Fred Rosenbaum A group of actors perform in the heart of the Warsaw Ghetto, in a life or death context on a run-down stage! Inspired by true events during the 1942 Nazi occupation of Poland, Love Gets a Room is the story of a Jewish stage actress who must make the gut-wrenching decision to follow her heart or to escape the Warsaw ghetto. Told in real time, the film is a romantic tale of love and survival in the face of harrowing circumstances. Watch now Soda Recorded February 2025 Fred Rosenbaum 1956 Israel. A beautiful seamstress moves to a neighborhood of Holocaust survivors. Rumors about her having been a “kapo” in a concentration camp shake up the neighborhood. But Shalom, a former resistance fighter, is torn between his passion for her and his commitment to his wife and to his community. Soda won 10 Ophir awards, including Best Picture, in 2023. Watch now The Stronghold Recorded February 2025 Fred Rosenbaum Michael Aloni stars as Dr. Nahum Werbin in this tense film based on a true story. He is a reserve officer fresh out of medical school, arriving at an isolated outpost in Sinai on the eve of Yom Kippur, 1973. Soon, the war breaks out, with many of his soldiers getting killed or wounded. With medical supplies running low, and the outpost now under Egyptian siege, Werbin tries to convince the soldiers to surrender — the dishonorable but only way to save their lives. Watch now Kissufim Recorded February 2025 Eran Kaplan Kissufim, although a new film, brings us back several decades...4 years after the Yom Kippur War. It is 1977 when Israelis were optimistic for peace and a group of young women and men in the military are completing their final stage of service on Kibbutz Kissufim near Gaza. As Egyptian leader Anwar Sadat flies to Jerusalem, they navigate love, violence and morality. An outstanding film that resonates with what's happening today in Israel. Watch now His Own Way: The Cinema of Avi Nesher Recorded February 2025 Eran Kaplan For the past five decades, Avi Nesher has been Israel’s most prominent director, with many of his films having remained cult favorites. Now, Nesher is in front of the camera. His Own Way examines the DNA of Nesher's cinematic creations, which include musicals, dramas, and comedies, chronicling the homeland in which he started his career. Watch now
