The Meeting Point

Original title: Tagpuan

A short ethnographic documentary that explores how Filipino workers in Israel, most of whom are caregivers, were able to create a community in one of the most obscure places in Tel Aviv, the Central Bus Station, locally known as the “Ha’TaChana Ha’Merkazit.” In this little Filipino center, thousands of OFWs find solace among each other, as they sacrifice for their families back home to care for strangers.
