Atlanta Jewish Film Festival – Delegation (Virtual)

A sensitive coming-of-age road trip unfolds as Israeli teens confront historical trauma and adolescent angst during a bus tour of Poland’s Holocaust sites. High school friends—shy Frisch, budding artist Nitzan, and heartthrob Ido—savor their time before compulsory military service. Joined by classmates and a Shoah survivor, they navigate love, friendship, hormones, and politics against the solemnity of concentration camps and memorials. Writer-director Asaf Saban, inspired by his experiences, explores the rift between collective suffering, identity, and young Israelis’ individual lives. Captivating performances earned Best Ensemble and Screenplay honors at the Jerusalem Film Festival.
