Click or tap on the links or pics to go to an exhaustive (but still growing) catalogue of films. There are links to trailers, and sometimes to the whole film.
Most of the films are made in Israel and/or about Israel, but there are also many interesting films from the Jewish Diaspora.
To be clear, there are some turkeys. I don't necessarily LIKE all the films in the catalogues, but I'll talk about them anyway.
"I" comes before "P" in the alphabet, and I can't get a fancy function to randomise the order that the lists appear here.
I wanted to randomise it, but honestly the system I'm using doesn't stretch to that. Maybe in the future it will be possible.
Many troubles in the Middle East started over small potatoes, true, but please understand the intention. Whatever. Check out the films.
These pics are picked at random from a database, but I'm trying to balance between the various 'sides'. Every time I change the site again, faces will change!
Contrary to cruder analyses, there are more than two (or even three) 'sides' in the Mid East. Hence not all will be represented in the pics.
Also, maybe you've noticed that the Middle East is still pretty patriarchal, so there's a chance you don't see any female faces here. Tap/click to find a few, however.
As with the directors, these pics are being pulled from a database, and they change every time I change the site.
Hopefully you're seeing a fair mix, but as pointed out above, there are more than three sides to this story, so not all sides will show up here.
However, there is a fighting 50% chance that you'll see at least one woman here, as the ratio of actors is more or less 50/50.
I didn't really need to make this page, because of course you can already find the posts automatically listed.
However, once my blog started to feel more like a book (one that will surely need a lot of editing), I decided to make this page.
Partly it's just a way for me to refer quickly back to what I've already written about, but hopefully readers will also find it useful.
