Music is their shelter

An intimate portrayal of life on the edge in the war-torn city of Sderot. Once known for its prolific rock scene that revolutionized Israeli music, for thirteen years the town has been the target of ongoing rocket fire from the Gaza strip. Through the personal lives and music of Sderot's diverse musicians, and the personal narrative of the filmmaker, who ends up calling the town home, the film chronicles the town's trauma and reveals its enduring spirit.

Movie
Stunning, iconic, heartbreaking and yet life-affirming at once, Roman Vishniac's photographs of Eastern European Jews in the 1930s are imprinted in our collective memory as the last visual records of a world wiped out in the Holocaust. The story of their creation, and of the fascinating man behind them, has never been told. Until now. Please help us make the feature documentary VISHNIAC with a tax-deductible donation. Do we have perks? Of course!
