The story of Yamin Masika, the “Don Quixote" of Israeli cinema — a director, social activist, and cultural entrepreneur who played a pivotal role in transforming Mizrahi culture from the margins to the mainstream. In the 1990s, after repeated rejections by the Israeli film industry, Masika began creating underground, low-budget films and music videos featuring Mizrahi artists like Avi Bitter, Tamir Gal, Moshe Cohen, Sarit Hadad, and Zehava Ben. Though ridiculed and dismissed by the establishment, these films resonated deeply with audiences who had been excluded from mainstream media for decades, leading to a cultural revolution.

Two films that create one work about the 1948 War of Independence unfold along two axes. One in the past, retelling the events of the war through journals and letters that were written in real time – an ensemble of voices, Jewish and Arab, that create a human story about that dramatic war and allow a glimpse into the way the perception of this war was constructed on both sides. They’re accompanied by breathtaking original footage, a great part of it being shown for the first time. In the present, the characters are battling over the war’s memory – researchers, archivists, members of the unit for detecting missing soldiers. Some are charges with maintaining the ethos, other with its deconstruction. Each one of them believes that how memory of this crucial war will be embedded is critical to the future of our lives here in Israel.

Naomi’s Questions is an intimate and poetic documentary about Naomi, a 34-year-old woman with Williams syndrome. Filmed by her father over more than thirty years—mainly in their family home in Old Jaffa—the film explores Naomi’s journey toward independence after leaving home at 21. Blending archival footage, present scenes, and poetic re-enactments, the film becomes a cinematic letter—a dialogue between a father and his luminous daughter. Through this personal and collective memory, it questions how we perceive difference, vulnerability, and intelligence. Inspired by the Kabbalistic idea of Tikkun Olam, it suggests that those often seen as “wounded by fate” may carry the seed of our collective healing.

Even though more than seventy years have passed, the state refuses to open the files of the investigative committees that conducted the question that haunts many: Who threw the grenade at the Shem Tov synagogue? The grenade, thrown in 1951, killed five, wounded about twenty, and is considered the major attack that led to the rapid immigration of most of Iraq's Jews in Operation "Ezra and Nehemiah." For years, a large portion of immigrants believed that the State of Israel was behind the affair, because it wanted to induce the affluent class of Jews to immigrate. But recently, a box of documents and testimonies was found at a university in the United States, intended for the "future researcher of the material," and deals with the question "Who threw the grenade?"

With the establishment of the State of Israel, hundreds of Mizrahi and Balkan infants disappeared from immigrant camps. More than half were of Yemeni origin. Over the years, following public outcry, three commissions of inquiry were established, yet the fate of most of the children, including Yadida Jovany, remains unknown. The story of Aunt Yadida is a story of claustrophobia, of a dark, dusty storeroom that remained locked for years. Her living-dead presence hovered in the air of the family home. The opening of the archives in 2016 and the release of over 200,000 documents offered a first opportunity for intimate acquaintance with her past. What color were the crib bars she lay in at the infant home? Did she hear the soft sounds of a lullaby from a kind nurse's lips, or did fluorescent silence fill her room?

This is the story of the "Midrashia", the flagship of Religious Zionism in Israel, "the mother of the high-school yeshivas." This is a story about an educational start-up that was founded before the establishment of the state, and trained thousands of high-quality students who worked in all the centers of power in the State of Israel. This is a story about a school that, in a complex and surprising process, changed its face, and became an elitist and luxurious high school that produced successful and dedicated students - to an anarchic and disordered place. It is a chilling and unbelievable story about a sublime educational vision that has collapsed, about brotherhood, loss of control and maturation, and about the nature of the human soul, in which good and evil, cruelty and kindness, are mixed up.
