the holidays, current events and politics. Plus art, literature,
dance, kosher cooking...who's having a baby, who's

REEL JEWS

CHICAGO, MIAMI AND TORONTO HOST JEWISH FILM FESTIVALS.

Israel has been described as a land torn between those who want another
California and those who seek a purified Jerusalem. Both sides are on view
in the 35 films screened at the 17th Israel Film Festival, playing in Chicago
April 28-May 3 and in Miami May 5-10.
The series, including features, documentaries and TV dramas, played to
sold-out houses in New York recently. Many of the films are U.S. premiers
or classics, all in Hebrew with subtitles.
The most compelling is writer/director Joseph Cedar's Time of Favor, a
prize winner in Israel that was under consideration for a nomination as Best
Foreign Language Film at this year's Academy Awards. In this taut, well-
acted thriller, Jewish fanatics plant explosives in the catacombs of the Temple
Mount to "set history on the right course."
Israel has an active film and TV industry, but little is available commer-
cially here. Only the films of Amos Gitai regularly make it into the top festi-
vals and into American distribution. The most recent, Kippur, released in
the United States in December and scheduled among festival films, is based
on his experiences during the 1973 Yam Kippur War.
The festival attractions range from romantic thrillers, biographies of pop
stars, depictions of Palestinian relations with Israeli officialdom and exami-
nations of the conflicts between Orthodox and secular Jews.
For audience information, call (877) 966-5566, or go to the Web site at
w-ww.israelfilmfestival.com .
The ninth annual edition of the Toronto Jewish Film Festival runs April
26-May 3.
"The festival attracts well over 15,000 each year," said Helen Zukerman,
the festival's executive director. With a special focus on comedy, the festival
will feature 11 films and 44 shorts from 12 countries.
For further information on the Toronto Jewish Film Festival, call
(416) 925-9056, or go to the Web site at ww.tjfficom.
