About Break of Day
In the first years of the State of Israel, numerous new immigrants were tasked with establishing agricultural “immigrant settlements” to bolster the country’s agricultural sector.
Directed by Aryeh Lahola, Break of Day leans on a strong ensemble — Orna Porat — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 1952.
