Hannah Arendt (voice)
The life and work of German political philosopher of Jewish descent Hannah Arendt (1906-75), who caused a stir when she coined a subversive concept, the banality of evil, in her 1963 book on the trial of Nazi war criminal Adolph Eichmann (1906-62), held in Israel in 1961, which she covered for the New Yorker magazine.
Through stop-motion animation, drawings and interviews, directors Amer Shomali and Paul Cowan recreate an astonishing true story from the First Palestinian Intifada: the Israeli army’s pursuit of eighteen cows, whose independent milk production on a Palestinian collective farm was declared "a threat to the national security of the state of Israel."
Fowler's Aide
En 1973, el ejército de Israel perdió un caza con un misil nuclear, abatido por fuerzas enemigas. No se volvió a saber del misil. 29 años después, un viejo árabe lo encuentra semienterrado y abandonado en el Golán, y se lo vende a un mercenario con conexiones con unos potentados neonazis. Al mismo tiempo, en Rusia, se produce un nuevo cambio de presidente, y el nuevo mandatario, apenas conocido, no despierta plena confianza para la CIA... Nueva y trepidante aventura del agente de la CIA Jack Ryan (interpretado ahora por Ben Affleck y al que anteriormente habían dado vida Alec Baldwin y Harrison Ford). La película tuvo su polémica al tratar el tema del terrorismo de forma apocalíptica cuando todavía estaba reciente el recuerdo del 11-S. Además, en la novela de Tom Clancy los terroristas eran fanáticos musulmanes, pero los productores decidieron "sustituirlos" por terroristas neonazis en la adaptación cinematográfica.
