Let it Be Morning

Written and directed by acclaimed Israeli filmmaker Eran Kolirin (The Band’s Visit), LET IT BE MORNING is the story of Sami, a Palestinian-born Israeli citizen living in Jerusalem who receives an invitation to his brother’s wedding forcing him to return to the Arab village where he grew up. After the wedding finishes, with no explanation, Sami's hometown is put under a military blockade lockdown by Israeli soldiers. When chaos erupts overnight amongst the villagers stuck behind the wall due to the blockade, Sami is cut off from the outside world and trapped in an unexpected situation. As he deals with questions about his own identity, Sami watches everything he holds dear fall apart. Adapted from the international best-selling novel by Palestinian author Sayed Kashua, LET IT BE MORNING was Israel's Official Submission to the 94th Academy Awards.
