Davis Film Festival - Breaking Bread

This delicious documentary explores the A-Sham Festival in Haifa, where Arab and Jewish chefs work together creating mouth-watering dishes and share a love of cooking. The chefs put personal spins on traditional recipes handed down over generations, transforming flavors while political and religious differences melt away. Breaking Bread gives hope to the idea that collaboration in the kitchen could be a bridge to mutual understanding and, perhaps, a first step toward a lasting peace.

Beth Elise Hawk / Documentary / Israel / 85 min.

Davis Film Festival - America

Eli is a private, soft-spoken Israeli swimming coach living in Chicago. One day, he receives a call that his father has passed away. Upon returning to Tel Aviv, he meets up with his childhood friend, Yotam and his fiancée, Iris (Oshrat Ingadeshet, Best Actress prizewinner at the Jerusalem Film Festival), who run a flower shop together. Suddenly, in the blink of an eye, a tragedy sets off a chain of events for these three individuals, unlocking their hidden desires, secrets and torments.

Ofir Raul Grazier / Drama / Israel / 127 min.

Davis Film Festival - March '68

Did you know that antisemitism masked as Anti-zionism forced as many as 20,000 Jews to emigrate from Poland in the wake of the Six Day War? March '68 centers on two students, who meet in Warsaw amidst the social turmoil and state censorship of 1968. Though at first political, the young lovers take to the streets protesting against the unlawful expulsion of their colleagues from University and banned performances at the National Theatre. Hania’s parents lose their jobs in the antisemitic purge, while Janek's father (and, to a point, his mother) falls on the opposite side of the March barricade. History, politics and romance converge in a gripping and rarely told story of Jewish persecution in communist Poland.

Krzysztof Lang / Poland / Drama / 115 min.
