Exodus: A Journey to the Mountain of God (Hebrew: אקסודוס, מסע אל הר האלוהים) is a 1992 Israeli documentary film that follows an international group of archaeologists and travelers who go on a camel-back journey looking for the true location of the Biblical Mount Sinai. Arriving at Mount Karkom in the southern Negev Desert of Israel, they examine the archaeological findings discovered there by Italian archaeologist Prof. Emmanuel Anati. These findings are the basis for a theory claiming that the Biblical Mount Sinai is not Jabal Musa in Egypt, as some traditions claim, but Mount Karkom, and that this is where the Exodus took place. It also follows the expedition members' experiences and thoughts about religion, faith, human nature, and spirituality.Due to the remote desert terrain, the production equipment was hauled along the 160-kilometer (99 mi) expedition route by the crew and on camel-back.

The film was co-directed by Alon Bar and Eitan Bin Noun and written by Bar. It premiered at the Casablanca International Film Festival, Morocco on November 24, 1993, and was the first Israeli film ever to be shown in a film festival in an Arab country, and the first time that Israeli filmmakers officially took part in such an event.

Dans le cadre de ses travaux sur Shoah, Claude Lanzmann s'est longuement entretenu avec le rabbin Benjamin Murmelstein, au sujet de son rôle ambivalent comme haut fonctionnaire de la communauté juive de Vienne, contrôlée par Adolf Eichmann pendant la période nazie, et comme un « doyen juif » dans le camp de concentration de Terezín. En se filmant au présent sur les lieux évoqués dans les images de 1975, Lanzmann introduit une interrogation critique sur les moyens d'évoquer le passé au cinéma.

Malte's sister Barbel is shown defending her father and insisting that he could not have known the full truth about Auschwitz, that he tried to resist or subvert the Nazi's most inhumane policies, and that the victims of Auschwitz should be thought of as casualties of war. Malte also includes testimony from a member of a Jewish family in Slovakia whose house was expropriated by the Nazis in the early 1940s.

Pourquoi Israël (sans point d'interrogation) n'a pas de synopsis classique, ne raconte pas d'histoire, mais tente d’appréhender l'histoire d'Israël, vingt-cinq ans après la création de son État, au travers d'une succession d'images du pays et d'interviews de ses habitants. Tourné en 1972, le film, qui dure trois heures vingt, est présenté au 11e Film Festival de New York le 7 octobre 1973, soit le lendemain du déclenchement de la Guerre du Kippour.

The film was composed of several interviews with different Palestinian refugees including children, women, old people, and militants from the refugee camps in Lebanon. In the interviews Malas questions his subjects about their dreams at night. Through their answers, the film attempts to reveal the underlying subconsciousness of the Palestinian refugee. The dreams always converge on Palestine; a woman recounts her dreams about winning the war; a fedai of bombardment and martyrdom; and one man tells of a dream where he meets and is ignored by Gulf emirs. According to Rebecca Porteous, the film constructs "the psychology of dispossession; the daily reality behind those slogans of nationhood, freedom, land and resistance, for people who have lost all of these things, except their recourse to the last.
