Falasha offers a raw glimpse into a chapter of history that often gets overlooked. The documentary captures the harrowing journey of Ethiopian Jews facing persecution, leading to the dramatic Operation Moses. The pacing is deliberate, allowing the weight of the stories to settle as we witness the resilience of a community against overwhelming odds. There's an authenticity in the way it presents the struggles and the hope intertwined with the chaos of airlifts from Sudan to Israel. The lack of a known director adds to its underground feel, making it somewhat of a hidden gem in the documentary world. The emotional performances, though not staged, resonate deeply, reflecting a real sense of urgency and desperation that’s hard to shake off.
