"Hommage Award"
Cannes Film Festival Four young Zionists are assigned to defend strategic Hill 24 outside
Jerusalem, in order to maintain access to the besieged city during Israel's
War of Independence. Through the diverse personal stories of the
defenders, we gain a critical perspective on the birth of Israel and those
who risked their lives to insure the State's survival. With Edward
Mulhare, Haya Hararit, Michael Shilo and Michael Wager.
Directed by Thorold
Dickinson. "This first major success of the young Israeli
cinema is superbly directed."-Georges Sadoul
"Hill 24... feels more
like an exceptionally delicate melodrama with a rich sense of place.
Like Hitchcock, Dickinson makes the most of place- the chases through
those hilly streets in Jerusalem, for instance."-Martin
Scorsese |
