Description

“Moments 2005” is a wonderful mosaic. For the fourth year in a row this initiative is taking place with Jerusalem as the theme for 2005. The 15 films in this project reflect the inner worlds of the filmmakers as each presents their own unique expression of Jerusalem. The films provide a peek at the variety and richness of the city- everything from the open-air market candy vendor to the Shabbat dinner table of an ultra-Orthodox family are presented here with sensitivity and grace. The content and the style vary – from personal documentary to animation- while each film invites the viewer on a unique journey in Jerusalem.
