Nadav Lapid's 'Yes' Premieres at Atlantida Mallorca Film Fest Amid Controversy
Israeli filmmaker Nadav Lapid premiered his latest film 'Yes' at the Atlantida Mallorca Film Fest. The movie is a scathing critique of Israel and the Netanyahu government, following a well-connected artist couple in post-October 7, 2023 Tel Aviv who agree to all demands from the high command, selling their bodies, art, and everything to Israel's social, political, and military elite. The film has faced boycotts for receiving Israeli funding. Lapid stated he is not against cultural boycott but considers it a useless gesture if done alone.
