Golda's Balcony is a 2019 American biographical film based on the 2003 play Golda's Balcony,[1] written by William Gibson.[2] The film captures a solo performance by Tovah Feldshuh[3] — who plays Golda Meir and numerous other characters in the course of the film's eighty-six minutes — during a multi-camera, video recording in front of a live audience in May 2003.[4][5][6][7][8] The multi-camera video recording was edited into a motion picture in early 2019, after which it went on to become an Official Selection at numerous film festivals in North America.[9] As of 2020, the film had been selected for 75 Film Festivals in North and South American, as well as Europe and Asia and, in addition, had won twenty Audience Choice Awards as "Best Feature" among the festivals to which it had been invited.[5][10][11][12][13][14]
