The series of films looks at very different futuristic movie dystopias, and it can be fun to see what they got wrong and scary to look at what they were right about.
The festival, programmed in collaboration with the English department of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem (HU), begins on June 9 and continues throughout the month.
The Jerusalem Cinematheque calls its festival LiaFEST, in honor of Lia van Leer, the founder of that cinematheque, the Haifa Cinematheque and the film festivals in Jerusalem and Haifa.
The Jerusalem Cinematheque’s board of directors and Mahadav-Levin welcomed Sigoli and thanked Samorzik for his years of service
