Tali Rights

Tali Rights, The Collecting Society of Film and Television Creators in Israel Ltd. [Hevrat HaTamlugim shel Yotzrei HaKolnoa V'HaTelevizia B'Israel], is the copyright collecting society for Israeli screenwriters and directors.
Tali represents the public performance rights, rental rights, broadcasting rights and the making available to the public rights, as well as the rights to collect remuneration for the use of blank tapes, in regards to script and direction creations of its members.
