Logline

Synopsis

A journey into the real world of Israeli society and politics, Revolution 101 is not only a guide to the revolution but a film about film and its powerful essence. Combining both documentary and fictional material, this unique film outlines the path to change. The focus is on a film director and his producer and their struggle to restore the public in "public broadcasting". Following the two protagonists over a period of seven years, we see their experience with corruption, inflexibility and deterioration against which they strive in their quest to guarantee a new law that will ensure well-managed public broadcasting. The two central characters share a strong and unshakable belief in the power of film – it is an almost religious belief that the revolution will indeed be televised.
