The Embassy of Israel in Athens, in cooperation with the Michael Cacoyannis
Foundation organizes tribute to the Israeli Cinema, under the auspices

Sports. The tribute under the title “7 Stories from Israel – Israeli
Cinema Week” is going to take place at the Michael Cacoyannis
Foundation, from October 18th to 24th 2012.

The Israeli cinema is no longer unknown in Greece. Films from Israel participate and stand
out in various film festivals in Greece, while at the same time they
are being screened in movies as well as on TV. The tribute under the
title “7 Stories from Israel – Israeli Cinema Week” offers to the Greek
audience the opportunity to be introduced to the various aspects of a
dynamic society and a culture that constantly evolves, through seven
films, seven stories which show images from Israel beyond the ones in
the limelight.
