Human Edte: To See If I'm Smiling - North American premiere


November 26, 2008


To See If I'm Smiling - North American premiere
Directed and produced by Tamar Yarom

Israel is the only country in the world where 18-year old girls are drafted for compulsory military service and then spend two years in active duty alongside their male counterparts. In this powerful documentary, six young female Israel war veterans in their twenties speak openly for the first time about their experiences during their two years in the army, stationed in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank (also known as the Territories). The two years of service left an indelible impression on each of them. The young women grapple with and describe the emotional and psychological toll of their war experiences.
