This month, the AICE Israeli Film Festival returns for its 11th year. Of course, the nation of Israel is in the news at the moment for all the wrong reasons, but this Australia Israel Cultural Exchange (AICE) festival cuts a cross section through a complex and often turbulent culture and country. On the schedule is Camera d’Or winner at Cannes, Self Made, which opens the festival, plus Kidon, Album 61, Sweets, The Kindergarten Teacher and more. It’ll be a perspective on the people and politics of Israel that you’re unlikely to get on the evening news.
The festival runs at Palace Cinemas from Thursday August 21 – Thursday September 4, and we’ve got 15 double passes that can be used for any feature (excluding special events).
