Falafel as a metaphor for Israel Falafel
2003
Overview
Avner Levona, an Israeli graphic artist and photographer living in Toronto, created a documentary film about this popular street food, aptly titled, Falafel. Released in late spring, Falafel was screened at the 2003. Atlanta, Toronto and Vancouver Jewish film festivals and is scheduled to be shown in the 2003 Miami Jewish Film Festival in December. [Levona] prefers Israeli to Canadian-made falafel. \"In Israel they give you three falafel balls in a pita and fill it up with salads. Some places have as many as 20. Also popular is the fried potatoes. That's like the cherry on the cake. It's unique to Israel. I really miss that.\" While the culinary offerings and ambience of Israeli falafel shops in Canada may never measure up to their Israeli counterparts, many Israeli immigrants regard these Canadian eateries as homes away from home, according to Levona. \"When Israelis eat falafel [in Toronto], they get to talk Hebrew to each other. They talk about politics and anything that bothers them.
