Today, a new series called "Palmach" will be broadcast on the Tin Nick channel for viewers. This is a period series, which takes place in the years 1948-1946, days before the establishment of the state, and deals with the Palmach generation in their youth.

The series airs Sunday through Wednesday at 11am (if the kids are home already, so they will have something to see in the morning) on ​​Episode 94 on yes and on. STINGTV at the center of the series is a group of young people living on an innocent training farm Seemingly a secret training camp for raising youth for the Palmach and also a base for special operations against the British.

Emile (Abraham Arenson) and Eleanor (Naya Beinstock) come to the farm - a brother and sister who arrived in Israel as illegal immigrants. At first the young sabers mock their strangeness and literary Hebrew, but soon join them to fight together. The series combines real historical events that took place over two months in 1946, when all the undergrounds were united into one struggle movement, the Jewish rebellion movement. Also featured in the series are historical figures such as Yitzhak Rabin (True Wave), Yitzhak Shamir (Aryeh HaSafri), Moshe Dayan (Gil Weiss), Menachem Begin (Yuval Mendelssohn), Leah Goldberg (Natalie Eliezrub), Yigal Alon (Matan Kasirer) and Shoshana Young Damari (guest role: Yuval Dayan).

More games in the Palmach: Omar Hazan, Yael Shalbia, Eldad Prieves, Nati Ravitz, Gal Frank, Dolev Messika, Aviv Pankas, Noga D'Angeli, Lily Abgi, Uri Gov, Tal Grushka, Neta Roth, David Levinsky, Meir Tamam, Adi Alon, Michael Givati, etc. The series was created by Jonathan Bar Ilan together with Eden Gurion, and Bar Ilan even directed.

"Teenagers today see a lot of fantasy series or series about crazy murderers in small towns, and we have this story of the Palmach era under the nose," says Bar Ilan. "The heroes of that era were boys, so I think it's very effective to bring this story for children. It is also a series that says that things are in our hands, that children can choose what to do at any moment, and besides, nice to understand how our country was founded and who took part in it, there is an imperative for youth. It may sound a bit pedagogical, but it's like that. "

Will I dare to use the big word "mission"?

"Of course, it was completely there. I really felt it when we visited the Palmach Museum. We took tours there for the staff and players. We met a couple of Palmach chokes, we heard stories, and everyone stood and listened in fascination. Suddenly you think about the people who were really there. "

How close are you to historical events and how far to take artistic freedom?

"We had some anchors that were close to the events just as they happened - the night of the bridges, the Black Sabbath, the illegal immigration ship Tel Hai. We took artistic liberty in small things. We did Rabin's operations officer for the Palmach even though he was not in this position during those years, but we wanted to To raise his character in the series. "

Don't you worry that today's kids won't bother watching a historical series?

"The truth is no. The people around me had a little concern, but both yes and the communications cloud company went bravely with the series. True, the series' protagonists don't have cell phones and they don't make selfies, but we have integrated in the Instagram personalities like Yael Shelvia and Omar Hazan, which they supposedly Farthest away from Palmach fighters, and as far as we're concerned, it's a statement. "

You've brought the series up for a fortnight.

"That's right, because of the Corona crisis. We wanted to reach the kids who are now at home, and the series was set for 11 p.m. The children get up around 9 p.m., so at 11 p.m., they'll have a new episode to watch. Reruns during the day for those who get up later. Also, I think there is another potential audience, the third generation, those who still remember this era. Maybe the grandchildren will talk about the series with grandparents. That will be the real win. "
