Host a Screening
Bring LISTEN to your community for a powerful and timely cinematic experience that goes far beyond a typical film screening.
Host LISTEN at your community center, synagogue, private venue, or local movie theater to offer your audience an authentic exploration of Israeli intelligence operations that feels tragically prescient in light of October 7th.
Each screening includes a live Q&A session with writer and director Omri Bezalel—a former Israeli Navy SEAL—who brings two decades of speaking experience about military service, moral complexity, and the human cost of impossible choices.
Programming directors can enhance the evening with optional keynote presentations by Omri covering speaking topics such as: "Story as Bridge: Translating the Israeli Experience Through Art," "Creating Art About Israel in a Post-October 7th World," and "An Unlikely SEAL's Journey—How the Creative Introvert Became a Navy SEAL."
Complete discussion materials help facilitate meaningful post-film conversations about the moral ambiguity that IDF soldiers and officers face daily.
Screening packages are available at rates designed for different organization types—community centers, faith-based organizations, non-profits, educational institutions, businesses, and individuals—and can be adjusted based on budget and needs.
Whether you're planning an October 7th anniversary programming or seeking year-round content that addresses the complexities of conflict with nuance and authenticity, LISTEN provides your community with both artistic excellence and educational depth that transforms a movie night into a lasting conversation about resilience, duty, and the price of protecting others.
Testimonials
"Omri’s discussion after the screening in Tucson was one of the most meaningful moments of our JCC Jewish Film Festival. He guided our audience through difficult moral and cultural questions with great sensitivity and nuance, especially considering the challenging reality we live in today. His ability to share authentic and complex Israeli experiences in a way that’s accessible to an American audience - while bringing it all with care, depth, and sensitivity - is something that will stay with everyone in the room for a long time."
