Shores of Light (Rinascere in Puglia, 2015, 56') by Yael Katzir is a poignant untold story of warmth and compassion after a terrible war. Thousands of Jewish survivors arrived in Southern Italy after WWII, on their way to the land of Israel. To their surprise they were welcomed by the poor local Italians.
