Dear Librarian,
I am happy to let you know about the newly released documentary,These are my Names, which explores the experiences and identity conflicts of Israel's new Ethiopian citizens through the prism of their original names names that carry a depth of meaning and connection not often found in the West. In the 30-minute film we meet young Ethiopian Israelis whose original names take them back to childhoods in nature, to the hunger and fear in Sudanese refugee camps, to longing for loved ones who disappeared or died on the journey to Israel, to denial of their identity and a return to their roots. This film explores an important aspect of contemporary life in Israel and everywhere there is a large population of immigrants. These are My Names is an essential for your library collection. The price for purchase is $115 for public libraries and $ 300 for university libraries. There is an additional fee for shipping and handling. We would be delighted to send you a DVD for preview.
