Abstract

My involvement in education, as well as my work as a film and television director, is rooted in my desire to contribute to social change in my environ - ment, at least on a small scale. I make documentary films about a variety of social and human issues including, and in particular, about the IsraeliPalestinian conflict. And I teach cinema in a high school.
