When you think of Mediterranean movie-making, you might think of the Cannes Film Festival, which begins this coming week, but what do you know about the film industry in Israel? Last year, we created a medley of songs from Israeli film. Some scenes you might recognize, if only Chaim Topol’s famous face, and some are less well known. Enjoy these film songs as members of our music team did, at a popcorn-fueled watch party hosted by Cantor Schwartz.
