Ada, My Mother the Architect
2024 | Not rated | 81 mins. | Documentary | DCP
With Director Yael Melamede in Person
Ada Karmi-Melamede is one of the greatest architects in Israeli history. Her breathtaking modern buildings, including Israel’s Supreme Court, Ben Gurion Airport, and the Open University, helped forge the nation’s identity. We are fortunate that her daughter Yael, who started her career as an architect, decided to become a filmmaker. Her documentary about her mother is a refreshingly candid encounter between director and subject, and it is also one of the most revealing studies of the creative process in recent memory, and one that is keenly sensitive to the perseverance and sacrifice required of a woman who strives to excel in a male-dominated field.
