Discovering Israel: A Film-Based
Guide for Young People

This guide is designed for young people going on group trips to Israel.

It provides a way to explore Israel—before and after the trip—through a series of outstanding films. The films illuminate life in Israel and its remarkable history and culture, as well as the deep spiritual ties that Jews around the world feel toward Israel. The aim of this guide is to address participants' questions and perhaps inspire them—in the best Jewish tradition—to ask new questions.
