The Sons of Eilaboun

This touching short film allows the audience not just to learn about recent history in the Levant, more precisely the small stretch of land we call Israel / Palestine today, but to actually see it through the eyes of survivors of those times of upheaval, experience it through their sometimes sad, heart-braking, always emotive and authentic stories. a humanitarian disaster. Devoid of any propaganda, witness stories alternate with factual information about the beginnings of the state of Israel, leaving it up to the audience to make up their own minds. Pain and suffering and their historical context captured in a flowing mix of animation, contemporary evidence, witness accounts lest it all be forgotten. And the hope is that films like this can also facilitate a better understanding of the Palestinian side among Israelis.
