Yoni Goodman helps Gisha protest by producing an anime
Yoni Goodman, a director of an animation “Waltz with Bashir”, produced an anime on the closure of Gaza with an Israeli human rights group Gisha.
The project features a 90-second anime of a boy chasing a blue bird through Gaza Strip, but is blocked at every turn by a hand which represents Israel.
“The war made this project a mission for me. This character is this kid, he is kind of a kid and kind of an adult, a bit Arab and a bit Jewish, something that everyone can connect to, and it was very important not to turn this into a stereotypical film.” Goodman said.
