Doors 1 PM / Movie 1:30 PM
Soul of a Nation is an inspiring and eye-opening film that delves into Israel's most perilous chapter in recent history - a period defined by profound internal divisions, political unrest, and external threats that pushed the nation to the brink of collapse. Through candid interviews with key political leaders, including former Prime Ministers Naftali Bennett and Ehud Olmert, Knesset Member Simcha Rothman, former Supreme Court President Dorit Beinisch, former Israeli Ambassador to the United States Michael Oren, and former Foreign Ministers Tzipi Livni and Shlomo Ben Ami, the film takes you inside Israeli society through the perspectives of its most influential voices. Drawing on insights from Nobel laureates, Muslim leaders, peace activists, and other prominent figures, Soul of a Nation dismantles preconceived notions about one of the world's most scrutinized countries, delivering an unfiltered look at the nation, its people, and the monumental challenges that will shape the lives of millions for generations to come.
