| dbo:abstract | The Silver Platter (Hebrew: מגש הכסף) is a 3-episode documentary focused on Israel's economic and social issues, which was created by Doron Tsabari, one of Israel's most decorated documentary filmmakers, and Amir Ben-David. Tsabari is a film director and a professor of film and television at Sapir Academic College. Tsabari directed 11 films and television series and won 6 Ophir Awards, Israel most prestigious film award. The television format of “Connected”, the docu-reality series he created with producer Ram Landes, was sold for production to 28 countries, including United States, Russia, China, England, France, Spain and Australia. Amir Ben-David is a writer, editor, journalist and musician. Ben David is currently the Chief Editor of Israel's Channel 10 morning show. Ben-David was the founder of “Avtipus”, a successful Israeli Rock band that rose to prominence in the mid-1990s. He also wrote lyrics and music for many other famous Israeli artists. On November 9, 2016, the series also won the "Outstanding Television Documentary Project" of The Israeli Documentary Filmmakers Forum for 2016. Each of the episodes is centered around Israeli figures who played key roles in the debate on Israel's economy and society: Guy Rolnik, Yaron Zelekha and . The documentary sought to re-ignite the interest in the issues that were raised four years earlier, in July 2011, when a wave of social justice protests erupted in Israel – the biggest wave of protests Israel saw. Many of the ideas expressed by the protesters were developed and campaigned for by Rolnik and TheMarker, the newspaper he founded and of which he was the Editor-in-Chief. All three – Rolnik, Gutwein and Zelekha – continued to support the movement's ideas, even after the protests subsided. In A November 25, 2015 Bloomberg article, David Wainer wrote that “A wonkish TV show on Israel’s economy has struck a nerve in a country that usually reserves its fervor for debates about war and peace, giving new ammunition to opponents of government policies”, adding that “about one in eight Israelis tuned in to the three-part Silver Platter program, testimony to the depth of the discontent with the economy” and “Silver Platter has emerged as a cultural reference”. The series, which was the winner of the 2015 documentary series award of the Israeli Academy of Film and Television, was viewed on television and online by about a million Israelis, about two-thirds of the country's adults 20 years old and older. The series was aired in October 2015 by Israel's Channel 8 and was also made available for viewing online, where it became popular. As of September 2016, the first chapter alone was viewed about 555,000 times on YouTube. (en) |
