In 1968 David Ben-Gurion, the first Prime Minister of the modern State of Israel was 82 years old. With his nine decades of life experience and firsthand knowledge of the Zionist project that resulted in the creation of modern Israel, Ben Gurion sat for a six-hour filmed interview which was uncovered by documentarian Yariv Moser in the Steven Spielberg Jewish Film Archive in Jerusalem, with the corresponding soundtrack later found in the Ben-Gurion Archives in the Negev. Moser edited the interview, found the soundtrack and released “Epilogue” in 2016. This fascinating piece of history is stunning in its relevance to current events in the Jewish world.
Join Sharon Tash on Thursday, October 15 and Thursday, October 22 from 10 – 11:30 a.m. to view and discuss the film “Epilogue” (2016). Attendance at both sessions is recommended. RSVP here.
Please note: this group will take place in person only; no online option is available.
