An Israeli movie was selected for the main competition at Moscow’s International Film Festival. The choice of Eitan Anner’s “Love and Dance” or “A Half-Russian Story,” as it is called in Russian, is believed to mark the first time in the festival’s 48-year-long history that an Israeli production will compete for the festival’s main prize. The festival runs from June 23 to July 2.
