Adamah (film)

Adama (English: Tomorrow's a Wonderful Day) title is a motion picture produced in Mandatory Palestine shortly before the establishment of Israel.

The plot of the film focuses on the life of a Jewish boy, who was a Holocaust survivor, trying to rehabilitate himself from the traumas he experienced by working on the land and establishing social relationships while living in the youth village Ben Shemen.

His ties to the land of his forefathers reaches fulfillment by working strenuously in preparing the rocky soil for planting.

An agreement was signed between Ben Shemen and the woman’s Zionist organization in the U.S.A, Hadassah (the official representative of Youth Aliyah in the U.S.).

According to this agreement Hadassah would cover the deficits in the budget of Ben Shemen and assist in funding the film about life in the village.

The intention was to produce a full blown film with a plot that would move audiences and present the educational achievements of the youth village.

The assistant director of the film was Joseph Salzberger and the photographers Sasha Alexander, Robert Ziller, and Naftalie Rubinstein – all noted talents in their field.
