Israel Philharmonic

There is a movie coming soon to our theaters: a film--an actual film--of a performance of Israeli philharmonic orchestra.  I could not believe it when I saw the trailer in the theater.  Who would produce a movie of a philharmonic orchestra of any country.  There are not even films of philharmonic orchestras of THE US DAMN IT.  What is this insane and obsessive love affair with things Israeli in this country??  I mean, if this was the Austrian or German philharmonic orchestras, I would have understood, but Israel's???  Why Israel's??  What is next? A feature film about potatoes in Israel??
