Helen Mirren stars as Golda Meir in "GOLDA,", a film by Guy Nattiv for Bleecker Street and Vertical Bleeker Street

In cooperation with Bleecker Street and Mean Streets Management, the Israel Studies program at the Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies (FSI) is offering a public screening of the Academy Award-nominated film, GOLDA.

Inspired by a true story of Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir’s leadership during the 19 tragic days of the Yom Kippur War in 1973, the film brings us back to the hardships of political decisions for the sake of the nation, statehood and regional peace.

Opening remarks will be offered by Larry Diamond and Meron Medzini. Larry Diamond is the William L. Clayton Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution and Mosbacher Senior Fellow in Global Democracy at the Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies.
