Vogel Lost Vogel | The Hebrews
50m
Even though he was not a Zionist and left Palestine after residing there for less than a year, David Vogel wrote novels and poems, displaying a masterful ability to use magnificent Hebrew. He charted new literary territory by describing sexuality and desire, challenging gender roles and identities. Using Vogel’s journals, letters and writings, director Ayelet Ofarim goes on a journey through Europe and Mandatory Palestine – following the trail of this writer who managed to do wonders with the Hebrew language but somehow happened to repeatedly be at the wrong place at the wrong time.
