Eyal Sivan's award-winning documentary IZKOR - SLAVES OF MEMORY is about the orchestration of memory. The film shows how school children of all ages in Israel are taught to pay tribute to their nation's past.

(...) A film on memory and politics: this is the way that Israeli society exploits its myths to train people to have no doubts or remorse, creating the soldiers of the future wars." (Tom Segev - Haaretz) IZKOR means 'remember', an imperative that is imposed on Israeli society through the public educational system.
