The best video about Israel that I have seen recently is the documentary *Israel Inside: How a Small Nation Makes a Big Difference*. It is appropriate for middle school as well as adults. You could also show the video *The First Israeli in Space: The Story of Ilan Ramon, Israel's First Astronaut*. One popular Israeli film for middle school students is called *Giborim Ketanim*(Little Heroes). It has English subtitles and our students love it. The series *Against All Odds: Israeli Survives* is a possibility, as well. Finally, the film "Becoming the Voices," produced by Baltimore's Center for Jewish Education, depicts students interviewing Holocaust survivors who tell their stories.
