Pesach begins on the 15th day of the Jewish month of Nissan. It is the first of the three major festivals with both historical and agricultural significance (the other two are Shavu’ot and Sukkot). Agriculturally, it represents the beginning of the harvest season in Israel, but little attention is paid to this aspect of the holiday. The primary observances of Pesach are related to the Exodus from Egypt after generations of slavery. This story is told in Exodus, Ch. 1-15. Many of the Pesach observances are instituted in Chs. 12-15.

There are not enough children for adoption in Israel. During the 80’s hope arose for those seeking to have a child – Brazil.

Approximately 3,000 Israeli families flew to the carnival country to adopt a child. German and Italian families were also part of this adoption wave. In the meantime, the children, now grown-up, are traveling to their land of origin to look for the woman who gave birth to them.

Filmmaker Nili Tal follows four young Israeli women on such a voyage.

This is a moving trip to a third-world country, where women have four or five children from several men and another one somewhere in a far away place. It is also a personal voyage into each of the protagonists’ life bringing up issues concerning us all.

Dorel Livianu was born in Bucharest, Romania, on October 10, 1907. He showed his high quality voice at a young age when he performed at age 7 in Verdi’s opera AIDA, as the little trumpet boy.

As a teenager he studied voice with the great Massini at the Bucharest Music Conservatory. As a rising star he was signed on by Columbia Records and His Master’s Voice.

He launched some of the greatest hits of the 1930s and 40s, such as “How Beautiful Life Is”, “In The Little Town Forgotten By The World”, “Johnny, Johnny”, and many others.

Columbia Records labeled Livianu as The Golden Voice of Romania. Dorel Livianu covered most genres of Romanian pop music, from urban folklore, the tango, foxtrot and the Romanian blues known as romanta.

He performed with the Jewish Theater Barasheum in Bucharest between 1939 and 1945, when Jewish entertainers were banned from regular theaters. He was deported and interned in a Romanian-Nazy labor-concentration camp in Transnistria for 8 months, which he survided due to his notoriety.

Livianu also recorded many Jewish and American popular songs while residing in Israel and the United States. He was a frequent guest singer on popular New York radio shows like The Joey Adams Show, The Forward Hour on WEVD, and many others.

He is considered to have had one of the most beautiful pop voices of Romania. Dorel Livianu was married in 1939 to Mella Silberstein and had one child in 1955, David Bogdan.

In 1967 he took residence in America, commuting for performances between Romania and the U.S. He passed away on April 2, 1997. He is survived by a son and 2 grandchildren.

One of Livianu’s most memorable slogans was “Love the Romanian blues and you will forever stay young”. It was one of my father’s last wishes to make his recordings available to the world, as an expression of his everlasting love for Romania, Israel and America.
