The Band's VisitDescription
After arriving in Israel for a performance, the Alexandra Ceremonial Police Orchestra is stranded at the airport. Attempting to navigate their way to the event, they end up in a remote, forgotten desert town. Israeli filmmaker Eran Kolirin's debut feature is a subtle, heartfelt, and humane work that illustrates the complex cultural divides that plague the Middle East. A joyously bittersweet piece of visual music about isolation, melancholy and everyone's yearning for transcendence, through love, art or both. Michael Sragow, Baltimore Sun. Best Actor, European Film Award; Best Film, Israeli Film Academy Award. In English, Arabic, and Hebrew. Sponsored by the Hirschfield International Film Series.
