WhatsApp, GARIN GILBOA?
Itzhak Fuchs, Israel, 2022, 26 min
Seeking to find out what remains of the Religious Zionism he once knew, director Itzhak Fuchs retrospects the glamorous period of his youth in 1967, when he served in a religious paramilitary group. Fifty years later, his peers create a WhatsApp group to revive the lost connections, but the medium that helped reunite them now threatens to do the opposite.
