AICE Israeli Film Festival 2014

Film festival enthusiasts should be delighted with the wonderful selection of contemporary films being screened this year in the 11th AICE Israeli Film Festival.

Israeli society is put under a microscope in an array of 26 world-class comedies, dramas, romances, documentaries and short films which reflect the ever-increasing strength of Israeli cinema.

Self Made is the opening night film, a charming and sophisticated black comedy which explores the lives of two women – one an Israeli and the other a Palestinian.

Sweets is a controversial film about an entrepreneur who opens a chain of seemingly innocent candy stores.

Next To Her is a tense and mesmerising drama about the relationship between two sisters.

The Kindergarten Teacher tells the story of a teacher who believes her gifted five-year-old student has a talent for writing poetry.

And The Green Prince is a captivating documentary which explores the building friendship between two men whom history insists must be enemies. (MM)
