The Israeli Consulate General of Israel to New England is honored to host a screening of 'The Dove Flyer' based on the novel by Eli Amir. The film depicts the volatile political atmosphere in Iraq which affected the Jewish community in Baghdad after the Farhud of June 1941, when Iraqi Jews were attacked and killed and Jewish property was looted. It portrays a Jewish community that was affected by the Arab society around it, while at the same time bound by ties of friendship.

 

The screening will take place at the Leventhal-Sidman JCC, 333 Nahanton St, Newton, MA 02459 on Monday, December 15, 2014 at 8:00pm.
