BIFF to screen award-winning doc on Israeli withdrawl from Gaza

1.5.07
BERKSHIRE INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL PRESENTS
THE AWARD-WINNING DOCUMENTARY “STORM OF EMOTIONS”
SHORT-LISTED FOR AN ACADEMY AWARD NOMINATION

Monthly Series Will Showcase the Israeli Film about the Disengagement from the Gaza Strip

(Great Barrington, Mass.) – The Berkshire International Film Festival (BIFF) continues its’ monthly free-screenings with the award-winning film Storm of Emotions, an Israeli documentary about the disengagement from the Gaza Strip, and efforts to achieve a democratic decision amidst great social and political turmoil. It was clearly one of the most complex and sensitive missions ever carried out, and is far from a complete resolution. Storm of Emotions explores this mission from the perspective of the Israeli police force, the law enforcement authority tapped to carry out this mission. The film considers how these individuals had to balance their emotions, beliefs, conscience and brotherhood with their own people while trying to maintain civil order and a democratic outcome. It is a story of humanity in its finest hour. This is the story of brothers in heart.


The film has been short-listed among the 15 contenders in the Best Documentary Feature category by the Academy of Motion Picture of Arts and Sciences. The film also won the Best Documentary at the Monaco International Film Festival. Showings are on Sunday, January 7, at 11:00 a.m. and Monday, January 8, at 5:30, at the Triplex Cinema and is free to the public.
