Beit Hafen theater hall
Nine Jewish and Arab women, employees of the municipality of Hadera, meet in a workshop to study videography where Rona (Dana Ivegi), a young director, leads the workshop and teaches them how to document their world.
At the heart of the film is the fascinating group dynamic that develops between the walls of the room, alongside the unique video clips that the women shoot and project on the white screen. Issues such as independence, relationship, motherhood, freedom and sexual abuse lead to a collision and rapprochement between women who, without the workshop, would not have found their place together in the same space, and certainly do not share secrets and defining intimate moments. Rona watches them and takes a picture. Maybe a movie will come out of it.

It is difficult to accept that anti-Israeli elements are being mixed into the holiday, and I mean mainly towards the Palestinians that we as Israelis are not ready to accept them as a nation that has never been like it!
The time has come for us to stop with our stupid naivety in our own country!
I am not considered an extreme right-winger, but completely sane and realistic about the situation that has existed for so many years.
I am ready to accept only people who love life and are in favor of a sane life.
The mayor is courting the voices of the Arabs
Fir tree 4 meters high. If she falls further in the polls, on Passover we will get an Easter bunny with an egg
We have gone completely off the rails - a Jewish state that is destroying its identity. There is no Hanukkah anywhere except for a few Chanukahs that Chabad Shamim
Who do you celebrate with? With the rioters from the day before yesterday?
And along the way are they also supported? After they proved to us that coexistence is only for livelihood needs
And when it suits them.
Just don't come
Every candidate for mayor should be required to close the unnecessary hinga
Live in the movie We the Jews boycott this madness
Celebrate alone with the Arabs
Living on another planet.
There is no connection between me and their world.
I do not support those who protested against me on Ben Gurion Boulevard!!!
Happy holiday to all the celebrants of the holiday season. good morning and good day.
Enough hypocrisy!
Just a few days ago they went out to demonstrate in the colony
enough!
