Juliano Mer-Khamis in Berlin-Jerusalem

Two interconnected stories in the 1930s, one set in Berlin, the other in Palestine:


Berlin-Jerusalem is a 1989 British-Dutch-French-Israeli-Italian English-, French-, German-, and Hebrew-language independent  historical experimental. film. It was directed by Amos Gitai. I first saw caps from poster Charles on DreamCaps, and after a lot of searching, finally found a copy yesterday in order to make a clip.


The film tells the story of two women in the 1930s. The first, Else Lasker-Schüler  a German expressionist poet, observes the rise of Nazism in Berlin before leaving for Jerusalem. The second, the Russian Manya Shochat, called Tania in the film, settles in a community in Israel.  Similar to his turn in Night Terrors, Juliano Mer-Khamis has a small, but visually significant role.  He comes in during the middle, providing the hotness and male skin these dramas both needed and benefited from.

Thanks to Charles from DC for some of the caps

The images are meant to be a celebration of “diversity, equality and freedom.
