Our Natural Right | Over seven decades ago, the members of the People’s Council sat down to draft the Declaration of Independence of the State of Israel. Every word and comma led to hours of debate. The declaration was signed, the State established, but the debate still rages. The grandchildren of the signers of the Declaration of Independence return to the hall in Tel Aviv where the document was signed. Who are the descendants of the people who established the state? What do they think of it today? Can they agree on one correct path for Israel? Watch the film’s trailer HERE.
Gideon Meir, Israeli musician and grandson of Golda Meir; Nitzan Kahana, women’s right activist, lawyer, and granddaughter of Rabbi Kalman Kahana
