Event Description: And The Alley She Whitewashed In Light Blue 

Followed by a Q&A session with the filmmaker.

Architect Nili Portugali takes us, in her poetic, meditative cinematic language, on an intimate journey into childhood memories in the Kabbala holy Galilee city of Tsefat. Unfolding from her present holistic/Buddhist point of view, the film leads to universal insights - what are timeless places where one feels at home, and what is the one pure art of making that creates them across cultures and eras. Memories embedded in each stone of the invisible old city of Tsefat intertwine with those of her grandmother, whom she calls “a Zen Master.”
