The award-winning Ma’abarot is the first documentary to tell the story of the controversial Israeli transit camps and the experience of the Jews from Arab countries. These camps housed hundreds of thousands of new immigrants from different parts of the world, transitioning them into becoming part of the Israeli cultural tapestry and yet creating nearly unsurmountable challenges for the newly formed state. Ma’abarot unravels the many stories of the camp residents, discovering new details, that shatter common stereotypes in the current Israeli discourse.
