Description

In collaboration with the Prosserman JCC, this series showcases the excellence of Israeli cinema, fostering cultural connection.

Albert, an aging war veteran (brilliantly played by Shmuel Vilozni) makes a drunken bet: he will drive his beat up tractor (top speed: 35km/hour... downhill) the length of Israel to Eilat—in one week. Ben, his grumpy, unemployed son, is obligated to join him. Their funny and bittersweet journey towards forgiveness and understanding takes them on a road trip from their kibbutz through Israel's neglected backyard, meeting others who also strive for a better life.

Make sure to check out the other upcoming screenings in our Israeli Film Series. Tickets available now.
