Presented by UHeights Theatre Alliance Member Yun Theatre on May 24 from 7-9 PM in The Auditorium at UHeights.
Yun Theatre will host a series of events on Palestinian awareness, including two play readings and two screenings, aimed at engaging our community to understand and explore the urgent issues facing the Palestinian community.
When two young American Jews raised to unconditionally love Israel witness the brutal way Israel treats Palestinians, their lives take sharp left turns.They join a movement of young American Jews battling the old guard to redefine Judaism’s relationship with Israel, revealing a deepening generational divide over modern Jewish identity.
Israelism, directed by two first-time Jewish filmmakers who share a similar story to the film’s protagonists, uniquely explores how Jewish attitudes towards Israel are changing dramatically, with massive consequences for the region and for Judaism itself.
