Aulcie

2020 | 75 Minutes | Dani Menkin | March 12-19, 2026

From acclaimed filmmaker Dani Menkin and executive producers Nancy Spielberg and Jon Weinbach comes the unbelievable story of Aulcie Perry, an African American from the violence-filled streets of Newark, New Jersey.

Aulcie finds his glory in leading Israel’s Maccabi Tel Aviv basketball team to a European championship, only to descend to drugs and jail time, before finally finding redemption – all this while searching for his biological daughter.

All of the funds earmarked for this project go directly to Israeli documentary filmmakers at this difficult time when they’re encountering global cultural boycotts.

For DocuNation, we’re collaborating with renowned documentary filmmaker Yonatan Nir, who hosts the discussions with the filmmakers.

How it works

Each film — with English subtitles — will be available to watch for seven days over a weekend. On that Sunday, you can join our live English webinar with the filmmaker. We will send out a reminder for each event.

‘Aulcie’ will be available to stream March 12-19, 2026. The live Q&A hosted by Yonatan Nir will take place on March 15 at 8 PM (Israel time) / 2 PM (Eastern Time) with director Dani Menkin.
