What is the relationship between borders, identities, and vulnerability, and how has is relationship explored in cinema? How are borderlands also testing grounds - the sites of serious ethical dilemmas? By examining powerful selections from films by Jewish and Israeli filmmakers, we will explore ways in which identities are defined and re-defined (at the personal and communal level) through the complex process of bordering.
