Event Description:Israel’s creation includes many stories of physical hardship made bearable by the unwavering belief in a new society founded on the principles of Socialism and Zionism. Young idealists from Eastern Europe immigrated to Palestine in the 1920s, resolved to build the kibbutz movement- a utopia of communal ownership of property, decision making, and education. In this film, some of these pioneer women, now in their 80s and 90s, offer candid evaluations of their youthful challenges and sacrifices, and provide a context for the timely debate on the viability of the kibbutz.
