Mr. Menkin and Mr. Aboutboul will introduce the film and give you a brief insider's view of fine art and finance of Israeli filmmaking with Morgan Stanley Senior V.P. Mark Frommer. Afterwards, they will take your questions. Immediately following the program, you'll get to party with the stars at the 2015 Festival Wrap Party, featuring City Winery wines, Israeli cheeses and other sweet and savory delights. A good time will be had by all!
