The Kirshenbaum Diaries

Israel 2018 | 135 minutes | Hebrew

The news reports of Moti Kirschenbaum, whose immeasurable contribution to Israeli media still resonates to the present day, were broadcast over four decades on Israeli television. Over the years, many journalists considered him a beacon and followed in his footsteps. One such journalist, Ben Shani, proposed that he and Kirschenbaum set out on a journey in the footsteps of those mythological reports. Moti immediately agreed. No-one knew then that his days were numbered and that he would die suddenly, just before shooting was to start. The journey planned for two became one man’s journey through the many stages in Kirschenbaum’s life.
