Once I Entered a Garden

Directed by: Avi Mograbi
97 Minutes, 2012

Israeli Filmmaker, Avi Mograbi, lets us take a look into an ideal bi-national state through learning the history of his past. At first, the film feels like a compilation of documentary footage but then diverges into a narrative about friendship between the converstaions of Avi Mograbi and his friend/Arab teacher Ali El Azhari who are on a journey to see what it would be like to meet Mograbi’s Syrian grandfather in 1920.
