Excerpt

Israel 2008, 5 min, DV
Director/Screenwriter/Cinematographer/Editor/Producer: Guli Silberstein
The pictures suggest a thermal imaging camera, originating from a documentary television picture. A little excerpt of reality that we don’t have to confront personally, but which is rather communicated to us in silhouettes through extreme slow motion images. A family portrait with a running child, taken on the street. But can we really perceive what is happening there?
