Anou Banou ou Les filles de l’Utopie

Emma, Yetka, Yehudit, Mita, Pnina and Racheli, six women born at the turn of the century – in tsarist Russia or in Poland, who went to Palestine in the twenties to “build the country by building themselves” (this is what the title “Anou Banou” means). Heirs to at the same time the ideas of Marx, Herzl and Russian feminists, they struggled to reconcile socialism, zionism and feminism. What has come of their dream today, 60 years later ? The state of Israël exists, but is it really that which they had dreamed of ?
