Beth Hillel Roma, in collaboration with the ALEPH festival, is pleased to present a screening and discussion via Zoom of the film “The Last Chapter of A.B. Yehoshua” by Yair Qedar.
After a brief introduction, the streaming link for the film will be shared, followed by a discussion with the opportunity for questions from the audience.
“A loving portrait of A.B. Yehoshua, the renowned Israeli writer. Suffering from a terminal illness, widowed and alone, he never gave up his joy in life, facing death with unwavering sincerity, and continuing to devote himself to writing a new book. A rare and fascinating glimpse into one of Israel’s most beloved writers, who passed away in 2022.”
The ALEPH Festival is an international cultural initiative created in honor of International Mother Language Day, dedicated to revitalizing, enhancing, and giving contemporary resonance to the Hebrew language and culture.
Founded by Yair Qedar, director and creator of the acclaimed documentary project Hebrews, the festival considers Hebrew not merely as a historical or liturgical language, but as a living and evolving cultural force that continues to inspire literature, film, thought, and artistic expression across generations and borders.
Through film, dialogue, and live exchange, the festival creates a shared international space for engaging with contemporary Jewish creativity, connecting local communities to a broader global conversation about language, identity, and culture in the 21st century.
AN IMPORTANT OPPORTUNITY TO SEE THE FILM ON THE FAMOUS WRITER AND TALK WITH THE DIRECTOR!
