Alone – The Legend of Miriam Yalan-Shtekelis
In a little Jerusalem apartment, surrounded by dolls and cats, Miriam Yalan-Shtekelis wrote children’s songs that have captured Israeli hearts for many generations – The Doll Named Zehava, The Soap that Cried a Lot, Michael, and many more. The director, photographer, editor, designer and writer Reuven Brodeski creates a Russian legend about Yalan-Shtekelis, using miniatures that he created especially for the film, interviewing people who knew her, and telling the story of Israel’s most important figure in the field of writing for children – Miriam Yalan-Shtekelis.
