Eilat Jan 1, 1953

A short documentary, produced by United Israel Appeal. Its residents number only 500, its fishermen use primitive methods, and its industry is in its infancy. But Eilat’s planners, including architect Theodor Kisselov, are already dreaming of the small village becoming one of Israel’s major port cities. This film documents the early days of Israel’s southmost settlement and Kisselov’s visit to it.
