Considered by many as one of the
most poetic films ever produced in this country, and as a milestone
in Israeli documentary cinema, In Jerusalem is composed
of 10 engaged observations of the city, before it was united.
Uri Klein (Haaretz) wrote: "When I first saw In Jerusalem,
in 1963, I was not fully aware yet of the importance of the
film itself or of its director, but I knew that I had never
seen an Israeli film such as that. I felt that the Israeli cinema
was being born right in front of my eyes"..
