This article provides a short history and evaluation of the changes the Jewish religion and Israeli Jews have undergone in Israeli film and television program depictions from the 1970s to the present. The article examines the negative portrayals of religiosity in earlier Israeli films, which were strongly influenced by Zionism’s inherent animosity toward Jewish religious expression and practice.
