The Tel Aviv Bubble: Its Meaning and Reflection in Cinema
Lecturer: Ziv Alexandroni — film director and lecturer on the history of cinema
Tel Aviv has always positioned itself in opposition to the narrative of the Zionist movement. In contrast to Zionism, nation-building, settlement, and agriculture, life in Tel Aviv unfolded as a journey of hedonism, living in the moment, self-fulfillment, and an ideology-free existence. We will examine this conflict and its reflection in cinema.
10:45 — On Emotions, Images, and Distortions of Perception Among Leaders in the Middle East
Lecturer: Dr. Michal Yaari — Middle East scholar, lecturer, and researcher at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev
We will analyze and examine how the relationship between Israel and its neighbors, as well as decision-making processes, are based on emotions, images, and distortions of perception that lead to mutual suspicion. What mechanisms can “break” stereotypes and create rational decision-making processes?
