What happens
Exodus: A Journey to the Mountain of God (Hebrew: אקסודוס, מסע אל הר האלוהים) is a 1992 Israeli documentary film that follows an international group of archaeologists and travelers who go on a camel-back journey looking for the true location of the Biblical Mount Sinai. Arriving at Mount Karkom in the southern Negev Desert of Israel, they examine the archaeological findings discovered there by Italian archaeologist Prof. Emmanuel Anati. These findings are the basis for a theory claiming that the Biblical Mount Sinai is not Jabal Musa in Egypt, as some traditions claim, but Mount Karkom, and that this is where the Exodus took place. It also follows the expedition members' experiences and thoughts about religion, faith, human nature, and spirituality. Due to the remote desert terrain, the production equipment was hauled along the 160-kilometer (99 mi) expedition route by the crew and on camel-back. The film was co-directed by Alon Bar and Eitan Bin Noun and written by Bar. It premiered at the Casablanca International Film Festival, Morocco on November 24, 1993, and was the first Israeli film ever to be shown in a film festival in an Arab country, and the first time that Israeli filmmakers officially took part in such an event.
