Farewell Column

Israel 2024 | 77 minutes | Hebrew

A journalist and columnist criticizes the government during the peak days of the COVID-19 epidemic. When a campaign against critical journalists gets underway, he experiences harassment and verbal attacks. Alongside the national crisis, his marriage is falling apart; he leaves home and tries to stabilize his life and the lives of his children. Farewell Column is a fierce and poignant film that describes the Israeli reality without taking any prisoners. Director Ron Ninio, aided by the measured performances of Dror Keren and Ilanit Ben-Yaakov, paints a portrait of a country in crisis.
