ARAB LABOR (Avoda Aravit)
Director: Dani Faran, Israel, 2007, 44 min., Arabic/Hebrew with subtitles
Don't miss this groundbreaking and wildly funny prime-time Israeli TV show, the first ever to feature an Arab Israeli family. Amjad is s reporter for a Hebrew-language newspaper whose hilarious attempts to assimilate into mainstream Israeli society expose prejudices and stereotypes on both sides of the country's Jewish-Arab divide. A milestone on Israeli TV that has been called the Israeli Seinfeld!
