(Israel 1984)
Dir: Uri Barbash
With: Arnon Zadok, Mohammad Bakri, Assi Dayan, Boaz Sharabi
Tel Aviv premiere of the restoration of Beyond the Walls: A Tribute to Uri Barbash in collaboration with the podcast “Once Upon a Time in Israel”
A powerful drama written by Uri and Benny Barbash with Eran Preis, Beyond the Walls presents an Israeli prison as a microcosm of Israeli society. Jewish criminal inmates and Palestinian security prisoners, initially divided by hostility, are forced to join forces in a struggle against a prison administration that seeks to keep them apart. Nominated for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film, the film focuses on the unexpected alliance that develops between the leaders of the two groups.
Alongside its political tension, the film is also remembered for Ilan Virtzberg’s score and for “Tni Li Yad,” with lyrics by Shimrit Or and music by Nurit Hirsh, performed from inside the prison by Boaz Sharabi, who plays one of the inmates. The performance became one of the greatest milestones of his musical career.
(103 min. Hebrew and Arabic with Hebrew subtitles)
A panel discussion with Uri Barbash and Benny Barbash will follow the screening. Moderated by Gilad Levi Kopelman, creator, and presenter of the podcast “Once Upon a Time in Israel”.
