The VIJFF is thrilled to announce… planning has begun for the Victoria International Jewish Film Festival – Nov. 3-6, 2018 – and we want to share the fun.
Please join us at our not-to-be-missed launch event featuring a special screening of the film… “Ben-Gurion: Epilogue”. A new documentary featuring recently discovered interviews with Israel’s founding prime minister, David Ben-Gurion.
Synopsis
In the great depths of the archive, six hours of interview footage was discovered of one of modern history’s greatest leaders- David Ben-Gurion. It is 1968 and he is 82 years old, five years before his death. He lives in his secluded home in the desert, removed from all political discourse, which allows him a hindsight perspective on the Zionist enterprise. Ben-Gurion’s introspective soul searching is the focus of this film, and his clear voice provides a surprising vision for today’s crucial decisions and the future of Israel.
“A wistful ode to a lost generation of leaders who viewed simplicity as a virtue even as they strove for giant goals.” —New York Times
