Tel Aviv Stories
Presented by the Tel Aviv in Motion Film Club

Inspired by Francis Ford Coppola’s and Woody Allen’s 1989 New York Stories, young Israeli film directors Ayelet Menachemi (Ravens, Noodle), Nirit Yaron and screenwriter Shemi Zarhin (Aviva, my Love, Bonjour Monsieur Shlomi) created Tel Aviv Stories (1989), a feature made of three short movies telling stories of young women in Tel Aviv: One who tries to find the right guy, one who makes an effort to get a divorce from her runaway husband, and one who turns Tel Aviv upside down in order to save a kitten trapped in a storm drain. “Sharona, Honey,” “Divorce” and “Operation Cat” have turned into Israeli classics. Starring Yael Abecassis, Anat Waxman, Ruthi Goldberg and Sasson Gabai.
