Reviews

“For this work, which shows a particular sense of political urgency and complexity, the artist gave a camera to a Palestinian family in the tense city of Hebron. But instead of a one-dimensional representation of a political conflict, he makes life difficult for viewers through the split screen, in which we are confronted not only with the brutal reality of the occupation, but also with the joy of the victim, who can be aggressive at one point Ambiguity of both a playful and aggressive snowball fight, and with the Israeli director himself being able to take advantage of portraying the suffering of the Palestinians. The result is rough and unfinished, as subtle as it is allusive, and re-locates cinema as an active actor beyond the separation between subjective and objective, instead of being satisfied with a passive political role.
