Michael Veksel is a director, producer and editor based out of Tel Aviv, Israel. His groundbreaking documentary, "In the Same Boat" (Arvut Production, 2024), tells the remarkable and inspiring stories of five Arab-Israeli heroes and some of the Jewish Nova Festival survivors they saved from the October 7 Hamas terrorist massacre.
The film is a powerful amalgamation of the trauma and the hope of a nation, all melted together.
All of the heroes are Arabs, but they are also proud Israelis. Theirs is a story not often told. "In the Same Boat" profoundly depicts their bravery and their sadness, their strength and brokenness. All ending on such a beautiful note.
In this LIVE conversation, Shana Meyerson of YOGAthletica and Michael Veksel discuss these heroes and the survivors, the tapestry that is Israel, and how 10/7 changed them all forever.
If you are a yogi or yogini who doesn't know about Arab-Jewish respect and coexistence in Israel, you owe it to yourself to listen to this discussion about an ethnically diverse nation that looks out for each other, cares for each other, and stands together proudly as one.
