Chava Alberstein at Sela | Chava Alberstein, Eran Weitz, Maya Belsitzman and Matan Efrat

On stage, a fine ensemble that includes Chava, Eran Weitz (guitars and musical producer) and two outstanding new members, Maya Belsitzman (cello and vocals) and Matan Efrat (percussion and computer). 

The new ensemble paints the songs with sound and other colors, like scenes in the cinema. Songs that have not yet been performed on stage alongside those that have. A gentle acrobatic meander connects the pieces in Alberstein’s rich repertoire of over sixty albums and hundreds of songs. Side by side, weaving songs from then and now, about this country and faraway places, about the personal and the collective, together transforming the evening into one living Tapestry.

 

“The new show by Chava Alberstein is a rare experience. A one-of-a-kind evening that the intelligent singer cleverly weaves, with her excellent ensemble, among the old.” Amir Schwartz, Ynet

The Property | Screening and dialog with Dana Modan

A journey full of secrets and deceptions, which begins with real estate issues but actually devotes itself to matters of the heart, in Dana Modan’s first film as director, based on a graphic novel with family autobiographical elements, written and illustrated by her sister, Rutu Modan.



Regina and her granddaughter Mika embark on a journey to Poland to reclaim their family property seized during World War II. 
But their quest quickly unravels. Regina unexpectedly decides to abandon the mission entirely, leaving Mika lost and confused. 
To complicate matters further, an irritating distant relative keeps appearing at every turn. Just as Mika finds herself falling for a charming tour guide, Regina seizes the opportunity to pursue her own hidden agenda: finding her long-lost love, from whom she was separated seventy years ago.

 

‘The Property’ blends the different and similar characteristics of the Modan sisters as creators, and echoes their previous works: on the one hand, the pull to an ironic gaze and to comic situations steeped in black humor, evident in the television series created by Dana (‘Love Hurts’, ‘Significant Other’, ‘Aviram Katz’), and on the other hand, a dreamy-melancholic atmosphere that characterizes Rutu’s stories and illustrations. Cinematographer Yaron Scharf does a good job of translating the visual perspective of the illustrator Modan into film, and also of capturing Warsaw in a way that blurs its past and its present into a uniform, theatrical time, which well serves the journey that the grandmother and granddaughter take down memory lane.” (Shani Litman, Haaretz)
