It is dangerous to talk about left or right today, you immediately establish yourself as "the enemy of the people", either from one side or the other side of the political map. But I will try anyway. The Yehuda script started with me as an idea, as a simulation, where we are going.

 

I started writing "Yehuda", I wrote parts of it and the writing got stuck for about two years. The description of the situation in the story of Yehuda is catastrophic, unacceptable, but the more extreme the situation in the nation, the greater the chance of its realization.
The script is structured like the script of the famous TV series "24", every hour of the day is an episode of the series. It's a concept meant to stress out readers (or moviegoers), but requires a hysterical sequence of events to keep up. The longer the writing of my script took, the more difficulties I faced in writing it. Life in Israel is not "hysterical" like those shown in series 24 (a far-fetched description of reality), it is not full of spies and assassins of various kinds, and in general people here do not race in black vans through the streets with weapons and do not kidnap people (thank God). That is why when I wrote, I started breaking the day into two-hour units, to try and "calm down" the plot. Even so, it was difficult for me to fill some of the time slots, so the plot of the script was also stuck for a long time.
The script touches on many difficult issues. , we need to understand that we are here with one, and without each other's goodwill and patience towards each other, we will achieve nothing. We must recognize our advantages, our shortcomings, and thus ask us to cut the other, whether to the right, whether to the left, or whether ultra-Orthodox. We all have a right to exist and a right to representation in this country. We also cannot give up parts of the nation, we are all a spectacular and successful human mosaic, but only together, this is the secret of our strength and success.
Just before the big break we need to stop the madness and hatred that has arisen in the people.
The ultimate goal of the "Yehuda" script is to hold a mirror before us and ask: where do we go from here? Where do we want to go and how? And the script does that by giving us a slight glimpse into the future, a small taste of what, God forbid, might happen here.
The script at the end leaves us at the same point where we are today, anxiety about the future, frustration, bitterness and above all lack of path. We are like a flock without a shepherd, this is the truth.

Coming soon

The script “Journey” is under translation.
