Don't be a captive in indifference:
The Gilad Shalit Project is on its way

On Saturday, June 25 2011, the fifth year to Gilad Shalit being held in captivity, the video cameras will be turned on for 24 hours to document and broadcast a whole day in an imaginary captivity.

24 famous and leading Israeli people in their fields, will enter into a small room like a prison cell that will simulate captivity. Each of the people will enter this room for only one hour: an hour of loneliness, being cut off, darkness, an hour of captivity.

These 24 hours will be broadcasted live on a FACEBOOK page ("Gilad Project", www.gilad-project.co.il) which will be accessible to viewers from Israel and from the entire world.

The message is – yes to a deal, no to indifference. Gilad has to be returned home. The public in Israel can make things happen and can make his leaders act accordingly.

Among the people who participate in the project are Meir Shalev (Writer), Orna Banai (Actress), Chezi Shay (A former captive), Danny Yatom (former head of the MOSAD), Chanoch Daum (Journalist), Yael Bar-Zohar (Actress and TV host), Carmi Gilon (former head of the SHABAK), Ron Kofman (Journalist, TV and radio host), Alex Anski (Radio host), Gila Almagor (Actress), Oz Zehavi (Actor), Ami Ayalon (former head of the SHABAK), Alon Gal (Coacher and TV star), Ahinoam Nini (Worldwide singer), Menashe Kadishman (Painter), Zvika Hadar (Actor and TV host), Eyal Berkovitz (former worldwide football player and a TV host) and more.
