Description
As people around the world gather for (both real and virtual) Seders, we share a sneak preview of our upcoming season. A haunting tale of an exodus from Egypt and a quest for a place to call home. Zev Levi scored and sound designed this piece, with music from Blue Dot Sessions. Sela Waisblum created the mix. Thanks to our wonderful dubbers, David Satran and Karni Arkin. The end song is Aviv ("Spring"), written by Rachel Bluwstein, composed by Nissim Shuval and sung - in a rare 1967 recording - by Ilanit.
