[ha-Safran]: HOMECOMING
Dear Colleague, Where does identity come from? And what makes you connected to your home land? The quest for identity in modern day Israel is beautifully addressed in this special documentary. A universal problem in the world today, Video Librarian calls HOMECOMING: A provocative and moving study of ethnic identity. And indeed in a world where economic migration is rampant this film is essential for your library collection. As the review goes on to say: the camera follows the three subjects on their journeys, and it becomes evident that despite the geographic differences, all three countries share the same burdens of grueling poverty, a virtually nonexistent infrastructure, and dead-end lives for those unable to emigrate. We are sure that your library patrons will benefit from learning more about this contemporary topic. The purchase price for university libraries is $300 + shipping handling and for public libraries the price is $115 + shipping and handling.

[ha-Safran]: HOMECOMING
Shalom Safranim, If you were moved by the Academy Award Winning Documentary STRANGERS NO MORE You must take a look at The quest for identity in modern day Israel is beautifully addressed in this special documentary. Unlike Strangers No More HOMECOMING is an Israeli film made by an Israeli filmmaker. And her unique perspective and distinctive point-of-view give voice to three wonderful children who are in search of identity. As the State of Israel about to deport foreign workers and their children this film is a timely exploration of a complex political and personal situation. Where does identity come from? And what makes you connected to your homeland? HOMECOMING takes us on a moving journey with three teenagers who were born in Israel to foreign workers who came to Israel in search of a better life. These kids are not Jewish, but are deeply Israeli and their individual journeys take on cultural and emotional dimensions. We travel with them to the Congo, to Peru and to the Philippines as they examine their roots and contemplate their future. These issues are of great interest in our modern world and we think HOMECOMING would be a terrific addition to your library collection. The price for university libraries is $300 + shipping and handling and $115 for public libraries + shipping and handling.
