Jason Alexander, better known as Seinfeld’s George Constanza, to judge scriptwriting contest for Israeli, Palestinian youths

Renowned actor Jason Alexander, best known for his role as George Constanza on the hit show "Seinfeld", will be one of the judges in the “imagine: 2018” contest, sponsored by the One Voice organization, which encourages moderate Israelis and Palestinians to actively promote the peace process between the two nations.

 

As part of this contest, Israeli and Palestinian youths were asked to imagine what their lives might be like in 2018 during an era of peace in the Middle East. The winning script will be made into a short film directed by renowned filmmaker David Guggenheim.

 

Alexander noted that this project will allow young, aspiring filmmakers to meet with some of the world’s best known directors and bring across their vision of peace.

 

The actor also stated that he hopes that these teens would be able to tell a tale of peace that the world has not yet encountered, and that he, personally cannot wait to hear. The conflict in the Middle East is the past, said Alexander, but these stories are the hope that lies in the not so distant future.
