Shalom Safranim,
Culture Heroes: A thirteen part series about the significant contribution of individual artists to Israeli Culture Thirteen subjects and thirteen hand-picked directors, take on the complex and beautiful subject of Israeli cultural life. This fascinating series is comprised of individual films that illuminate the creative process both behind and in front of the camera. Each chapter is directed by a well-know Israeli documentary filmmaker who carefully crafted an intimate and personal portrait of the subject. The series includes a look at the creative lives of musicians, dancers, painters and actors. Each chapter is a story onto its self that can be viewed both separately and as part of the fuller picture of contemporary creative life in Israel. Included in the series are personalities ranging from conductor Zubin Mehta, to singer Chava Alberstien to choreographer Ohad Naharin. Already purchased by the libraries at Harvard and at Duke Universities, and screened in Chicago, Boston, Paris and Washington DC this is a must series for anyone interested in contemporary Israeli life. The series is perfect for students and scholars of Israel Studies, Anthropology, Sociology and History of Israel. We look forward to hearing from you and discussing this very special series.
