Yanush: We don't have history, this is the fact. I don't know how to say this in Hebrew. But this is what it is. Our history is the way it is because of the Christians. We didn't want it be like this. We don't want it this way ever. They forced this on us,and we can't help it. Because of this, I am telling you, I'm against this. But I didn't say anything. She didn't exist because of me. You may find it hard to imagine that I am so intensely against this. I'm really disgusted. Think about it, what have we found? Repression, slander, persecution, and sacrifice. Imbuing with hatred, uninteresting. No glory, no advantage. No heroes, no conquerers. Merely a lot of unlucky traces, moan and weep. Always looking for pardon. I ban indoctrinating the Jews stories to our children. Why does it have to be this way? I say to them. From the day we were expelled from our homeland, we became a people without history. The class no longer exists. Some people find it heroic, because we've experienced the suffering. I have nothing to say to this heroism. When a man is despair to no end, anyone can become a hero, whether he wants to or not. Do you understand? I'll talk to you about this kind of heroism, at the gathering this evening. Look, I have quietly experienced all this! Who is to say it could be any better? Look, we endured the suffering but we'll never have enough of it. Because if it's not for this, we will not exist anymore. That is what I wanted to say to you, endure, endure, endure, Under this situation,sorrow is better than joy. We replace action with our suffering. We'd rather expiate with slavery. This is an illusion of reality, of our hope for the future, our beautiful belief, so on and so forth, how dreadful! It's misery that makes us Jews. It proves that we are valiant. Whoever We didn't do anything. This makes sense, in other words, You cannot destroy us, You will never destroy us. There's no power on earth can do that. The power is limited. But our endurance is not! This expounds everything about the exile, affliction, and the Messiah... The amalgamate of these three, causes Jews not to be able to stand up.causes Jews to continuously drip from one people to another people. causes us to be pursued by hatred by hatred... in exile and exile. How they like this. The richer they get, the more valuable Jerusalem becomes... In exile, our pyramid is built with affliction at the bottom, with our Messiah at the top. The code of Judaism resembles the book of the nether world ! Thousands of men, all of them.in the 2000 years became insane. How admirable, what abominable people! Abominably insane. This kind of insanity is intentional. It comes out of the belief of the Messiah. It's simply a made-up story. Without this made-up story. Everything will be different. In order to end this nightmare, they should end in Palestine or elsewhere. It will compel them to think about their future. You need not do the things you need to. The Messiah will come soon, and he will settle everything. Likewise, anything you should do is to be banned. Banned! We should go on in exile in perpetuity, until the Providence feel that he should rescue us? I... I think... Israel is no longer the country of Jews, not now, but at least in the future. Time will tell us. It's all over. Finished.
- ConexõesFeatured in Independence: Around the Film 'Kedma', a Film by Amos Gitai (2002)
The historical setting of 'Kedma' is the moment of the beginning of the state of Israel when immigrants from Europe, survivors of the Holocaust arrive in Israel aboard the illegal immigration boats, just to finds on the promised shore a new land of conflict. 'Kedma' is the name of an immigrants boat, as 'Exodus' was, and it deals with the same period as in Leon Uris's book and film 'Exodus', Certainly this important moment in history deserves a better treatment than the Hollywood one. It's a setting well entrenched in the collective memory of any Israeli and Palestinian. Gitai however is more interested in decomposing the historical myth rather than building or describing it.
There are a few good moments in this film. Gitai likes long shots, and the first scene of the film is a beautiful rendition of the immigrants boat, with a nice passing from private to very public life. Another set of scenes represent the communication, or rather the lack of communication between the groups in the new country - immigrants from Europe still in shock after the horrors of the Holocaust, local Jews, prototypes of the 'new Israelis' full of confidence but lacking the understanding of the problems of other groups, displaced Arabs, mis-guided by their leaders and terrorized by the show of force of the Jews starting the long march that will become some day the Palestinian refugees problem, opera-style British troops, all these groups of humans get together in well filmed scenes, but do not really communicate. This is one of the problems that lay at the origin of the Israeli-Arab conflict seems the author to say.
Despite some memorable scenes, the film does not come together as a consistent piece of cinema. Characters get lost, show up and die too fast, they are more an idea of what they could be than real screen characters. The problem is not the lack of message, but the means - the author focuses in two monologues (by the displaced Arab, and by the Polish Jew immigrant) that say a lot about the continuity of conflict and about heroism being no more than a form of despair in front of the vicissitudes of history, but these are theatrical or literary monologues, without a connection with the film environment where they are placed. 'Kedma' is memorable by its setting and message, but not a good film to remember.
