This collection contains three movies directed by Avi Nesher, one of Israel's most successful filmmakers.  These three films, his most important and influential, deal with the youth-oriented Israeli mythology and are populated with young sharp-tongued heroes looking for their place in the world.

 

The Troupe (Ha-Lahaka)

 

A musical comedy about twelve young men and women, all members of an Israeli Army entertainment troupe in the period immediately following the Six Say War. The youths struggle with the stresses of performing, competing for solo spots and falling in and out of love with each other.

 

Rage and Glory (Za'am V'Tehilah)

 

Eddie was a sworn anarchist and Stern Gang (Lechi) fighter.  He was sent to Jerusalem to plan and execute an operation to assassinate a ranking British officer.  Joining the Jerusalem Lechi cell causes instant tensions when Dafna takes a romantic interest in him.

When the assassination attempt goes wrong and a cell member is captured and hanged, suspicions run high about a traitor within the cell.  All the fears and tensions in the lives of these desperate people come to a head in a breathtaking and harrowing climax.

 

Turn Left at the End of the World (Sof Ha-Olam Smola)

 

The setting is the late sixties, in a tiny, isolated Israeli village. Two immigrant families,­ one from Morocco and the other from India ­ become neighbors. They share nothing but a dream. As they are forced to live together, the two wary communities attempt to build a sense of identity. In order to assert their imperial identity, the Indians from the village put together a rag tag cricket team. The Moroccans, who take the game as an act of snobbery, do their utmost to be disruptive. Meanwhile, each family has a teenage daughter negotiating the landscape of the sexual revolution. When the sultry Moroccan Nicole and the heady Indian Sara become friends, their youth and desire for freedom help them overcome prejudices. In this isolated place, the road to harmony twists joyfully and surprisingly.
