The feature debut of writer-director Orit Fouks Rotem was nominated for eight Ophir Awards (given by the Israeli Film Academy) and took home five, including Best Film, Best Director and Best Casting. Inspired by Rotem’s experience teaching filmmaking, this unassuming yet powerful film follows Rona (Dana Ivgy) as she gathers a group of eight Arab and Jewish women and asks them to film their lives, share their stories, and challenge their own beliefs. Cinema Sabaya was Israel’s official entry for Best International Film at this year’s Oscars.
