"The Wordmaker" (1994) 
| Item ID: | OF0004 |
|---|---|
| Plot: | At the beginning of the 20th century, a language war raged in Palestine. The contenders were Yiddish, Russian, French, German, English - and Hebrew, a language barely spoken for two thousand years. At stake was the national language of the Jewish homeland-in-the-making. This is the dramatic life story of Eliezer Ben-Yehuda, who championed the cause of modern Hebrew. He was zealous and stubborn and had one driving passion - breathing life into the ancient biblical tongue. Denounced as a heretic, dismissed as a dreamer, this brilliant man pressed on tirely, often at the expense of family and health. |
