Elsewhere, a huge apartment made of sand is being constructed as the tide rolls in, while she belatedly tries to build a relationship with her Gran. As the camera sensitively observes how we wait for the upcoming days, the film embraces the fragility of life, full of uncertainty.

In the Fire of Dancing Stillness - Reflections with Vimala Thakar

Is it possible to live a more peaceful and creative life on our planet? In a time when the state of the planet poses important questions: What is life worth to us? And what do we still consider sacred? These questions inspired the Director to meet the Indian mystic, philosopher and grassroots activist Vimala Thakar (1921 – 2009). It was an encounter that deeply inspired and changed her life. Almost twenty years later, she researches the profound work of this fascinating woman again in the context of our time, and translates her urgent call for holistic thinking and action into a cinematic work of art.

Akirot (Uprootings)

"Akirot (Uprootings)" is a personal account which lays out a complex set of identifications and dis-identifications with the homeland, beginning with childhood memories and ending with the act of departing from the country that was called home. The videos weave together footage shot in two locations in Israel with illustrations from books of local flora. At the centre of the work is an unspoken conflict between mother and daughter considering their Israeli identity. Using hermother, anational nature trail guide, Leshem exploresthe Israeli relation to the land as a site through which identity is constructed. Through the performative and symbolic gesture of uprooting,the work deals with the personal pain of rejecting one’s motherland. As the term “motherland” suggests, land and mother are never distinguished from one another. The political objection to the land is at the same time a separation from the mother.

Arthur and the Seagull

Arturo is almost 90 years old. Widowed for a long time, he is used to being alone and his days pass as a pensioner, without doing anything special: walking, sitting by the sea, pretending to listen to the radio. Then one day he gets a newspaper advertising cameras in his hands and, for a moment, the opportunity to devote himself to a hobby becomes a different color among the alleys of an empty and old country like him. The seagull that was chosen as the subject, however, seems to have an entirely different idea on the perfect photography and, what was born as a game to deceive the waiting, turns very soon into a small enterprise that has the slow pace of the age, but the same urgency of freedom and fantasy as a bird’s flight
