The Translation Project

The „Translation Project“ by Halina Kliem takes Lea Goldberg's Hebrew-language poem You Will Walk in the Fields (1943), which is popular as a song by Chava Alberstein since the sixties, and asks people of different age groups in Israel to translate it into Arabic, Amharic and Russian. Halina finds her translators through friends, at the Arab-Jewish Community Center in Yafo, at the youth clubs Mix and @ in Holon and through the women organisation Achoti (Sister) in South Tel Aviv.
