“I think that the narrative has completely changed in terms of historical relevance of Palestine and the ties of Zionists with America and our politics, that has been a major revelation for people. How much money the United States gives to Israel, nobody really understood that,” Sarandon began.
“The Echo Chamber” hails from Italian director Andrea Pallaoro and filmed in Italy and Belgium. Sarandon stars in the romantic drama, which was Bernardo Bertolucci’s final screenplay, alongside Luca Marinelli and Alicia Vikander.
Sarandon said that Pallaoro was told not to work with her but did so anyway. “I thank Andrea for that, because he doesn’t listen to the warnings,” she said.
“There has been a change in terms of the general public, but there are still positions in my industry that are held by Zionists who have not relaxed their feelings towards me,” Sarandon concluded. “But I found my family, I found my people and I’m OK.”
