Eden Golan, an Israeli contestant in Eurovision, faced boos from the audience before her performance in Malmo, Sweden. The city has seen increased antisemitism, with protests against Israel’s participation in the competition. The European Broadcast Union allowed Israel to compete, despite calls for a ban. Golan switched her song choice to Hurricane from her original song, October Rain. Eurovision winner Loreen condemned the booing of Golan, calling it unfair and unconstructive. Malmo has become known for its antisemitism, with Jewish residents feeling unwelcome in their own city. Some have chosen to leave town during the Eurovision Song Contest festivities. Director Paul Roland Bois released an award-winning Christian tech thriller, EXEMPLUM, available for free on YouTube and Tubi.
