Please join us for the Miami Beach JCC’s Israeli Film Series screening of the movie – Savoy- on Monday, March 10 at 7:30 pm.

A young housewife becomes a fearless hostage mediator, only to be defamed, in this gripping tale of a Tel Aviv terrorist siege. On a deadly March 1975 night, PLO gunmen enter the Savoy Hotel, seizing hostages and demanding release of Palestinian prisoners. Among the captives is Kochava Levy, a young woman of Yemini descent, whose fluency in Arabic allowed her to relay messages between IDF negotiators and the terrorists. New archival material, riveting reenactments, and stunning direction and editing bolster Dana Ivgy’s sympathetic yet complex portrayal of the heroine who used language and humanity to connect with the enemy.
