[lbo-talk] Igaal Niddam, "We Are Arab Jews in Israel"

[Yoshie Furuhashi]

Has anyone seen Igaal Niddam's "Nous sommes des Juifs arabes en Israël
/ We Are Arab Jews in Israel / Wir sind arabische Juden in Israel," a
two-hour documentary about Arab Jews in Israel?  Niddam is a
Moroccan-Jewish Israeli director and was a Swiss resident when he made
this film (he may be now, too, if he is still alive, which I don't
know), and this is a Swiss film.  The film was released in 1977, and
it was shown at the Film Forum in New York City in 1978,
sympathetically reviewed by Vincent Canby of the New York Times:

In 2005, the documentary was presented again at the Fribourg Film Festival

Swiss Cultural Center in Paris
