After a few months of relentlessly applying to film festivals, contacting Museums, JCCs and Synagogues, we finally have some screenings lined up. We still have many more film festivals to hear back from throughout the year, so stay tuned, but we are thrilled to begin the process of screening our film around the world. Three years after beginning the film (nearly to the day), it is an amazing feeling knowing that audiences will be able to watch our work and share their thoughts with us. Making documentaries is fun, but what’s the point if no one sees the finished product? While watching your film with an audience can be nerve racking (family members are the worst: talking, going to the bathroom, facebooking), nothing can compare to the experience of seeing others laugh, cry or gasp during all those moments you hoped they would, and many more you never anticipated. We are looking forward to all the people we will meet, the reviews (good and bad) the film will get, as well as visiting some new places as we begin to screen Keeping the Kibbutz. Sign up for our email list to stay up to date on the latest screening dates!

Host a Screening
Host a screening of Keeping the Kibbutz! We have been screening the film around the country to engaged audiences, and we’d love to bring the film to your area too. Screening kits generally include:
- Copies of the DVD (or BluRay where available) for screening & library use.
- Posters and postcards for promotion.
- Customizable flyer/press release templates.
- Discussion guide for post screening discussions.
The filmmakers are also available for post screening discussions, and can offer a unique perspective on the film for audiences. If your organization is interested in screening the film, email us at info@eidolonfilms.com, and we will work with you to organize a great community, public or university screening!
