Film: "Forgiveness"
The Department of Judaic and Near Eastern Studies presents a film screening of “Forgiveness” and a discussion with film director Udi Aloni as part of their Fall Lecture Series.
Udi Aloni is an American-Israeli filmmaker, writer, and visual artist whose works explore the relationship between politics and theology. He is the director of the documentary Local Angel (2002) and feature-length fiction Forgiveness (2006). Both films are radical interpretations of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict that have stirred controversy in the Middle East and internationally. Aloni’s films have been presented in various leading film festivals and universities worldwide.
This event is free, open to the Five College community, and wheelchair accessible.
Co-sponsored by the Interdepartmental Program in Film Studies, University of Massachusetts Amherst and the Film Studies Program, Mount Holyoke College.
