"Code Name: Ayalon" is a documentary to forever preserve this important period in the infancy of the Jewish state. In 1975 a demolition crew was at work in central Israel at the remains of an old kibbutz. When members of the team wrestled aside a large rusted clothes washer, they revealed a small entryway that led below ground. What they discovered had been kept secret for three decades. An ammunition plant was built in 1947, almost under the noses of the British who had a nearby base. How the plant was built, concealed and operated is the fascinating subject of this documentary. Through interviews conducted with still living members of this group, we will piece together this pivotal effort in the battle for statehood for Israel.

This film will be shown at 2 p.m. and at 7 p.m.
