The text accompanying the doodle reads: "The trilogy had a tremendous impact on Israeli society and cinema as the one that brought to the screen an authentic representation of an oriental family and as the one that promoted the struggle of agonized women to obtain a divorce in the rabbinic legal system."
Shlomi Elkebats, director, producer, actor and Ronit's brother, said in a statement to the media: "Aronit was moved by this gesture in Israel and France, two countries in which she lived and created.
I think whoever meets her on the computer screen in his home will hear her again.
To think that millions of people in Europe and Israel will remember her, and these values, or know her for the first time, is a tremendous thing.'
Barak Regev, CEO of Google Israel: "Aside from the celebration of the unique talent of Ronit Alkabatz, the doodle is a reminder of her courage and the important legacy she left behind as someone who wrote, directed and played the fight of women for freedom and equality."
Among the women who have been immortalized in the past using Google's doodle are the artist Frida Kahlo, the singers Ella Fitzgerald and Om Kalthom, the scientist Marie Curie and the actress Audrey Hepbron.
