The Road to Where (Hebrew: הדרך לאן, tr. Hadereh Lean) is a 2016 independent Israeli drama film, written and directed by Michal Bat-Adam.
Set in Israel in the aftermath of the 1948 Palestinian expulsion and flight, the film tells of a house by the sea in Tel Aviv-Yafo, from which Arabs have had to flee in haste, which becomes the home of Jewish survivors who managed to escape the inferno in Europe. It deals with the turmoil of their existence, under the shadow of the unresolved conflict between Jews and Arabs.
In addition to music by Ludwig van Beethoven and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, it was conducted by Otto Klemperer), and was financed by the Israel Film Fund , Yes’s Yes Israeli Cinema , and the Ministry of Culture and Sport. [1]

[7] The film was released on DVD on 19 June 2018. [8] The Film Review Council has rated this film as being appropriate for all audiences. [9] It is estimated that only around 3,000 tickets were sold domestically, though the film was nominated for several awards at the 2017 Ophir Awards . [10]
