Hebrew speaking actors - NY
BORDER INCIDENT - NON-UNION SHORT
This film will be subtitled and it would be a plus if the actors spoke Hebrew. It is fictionalized events that take place right after the start of the Lebanon War. In the town of Shlomi, a group of Israeli soldiers look for their kidnapped comrades yet find out that they are in the wrong house.
Good chemistry between 4 soldiers in the Israeli defense force is the plan here. The script is a work in progress so characters may change yet the main idea is still there.
