"the First Lady's meeting last year with Aviva, in which she talked about her kidnapping by Hamas and pleaded for help securing Keith's release, was the only truly emotionally resonant scene in the entire film. And if you watch all ten minutes of Wednesday's White House event, Melania does kick things off by saying her meeting with Aviva was "captured on-camera and available to see in my new film, Melania.""
"Keith Siegel also comments, "I also want to end by congratulating you on the release of your movie. I'm so much looking forward to seeing it and so grateful for you deciding to have Aviva be part of your movie." Then Aviva Siegel adds, "Thank you for putting me in your special Melania film," and wishes the First Lady "good luck with the film.""
Melania Trump briefly met freed Israeli hostages Keith and Aviva Siegel at a White House event. A reporter asked why she felt it was appropriate to use an official White House event to promote her documentary. Melania replied, "This is not a promotion. We are here to celebrate the release of the hostages." She noted her prior meeting with Aviva had been filmed and said that scene appears in her new film, Melania. Keith congratulated her on the release of the movie and expressed gratitude for Aviva's inclusion. Aviva thanked Melania for putting her in the film and wished her luck. The film was mentioned five times during the ten-minute event.
