Chicken Soup With Knives
Sound Recordist
Chicken Soup With Knives is a personal documentary that chronicles filmmaker Leora Eisenstein’s journey (with her sister and other companions) to Lviv, her family’s hometown before World War II. There, she embarks on a search for her roots as well as a sense of justice. The journey from Israel to Ukraine encompasses meetings with current residents of Lviv, family reunions, and personal reflections. All of these elements converge as the film maps the effects of the past—and all of its painful memories—on the present.
The Band's Visit
Sound Designer
A small Egyptian police band travels to Israel to play at the inaugural ceremony of an Arab arts center, only to find themselves stuck in the wrong town.
Anaphase
Sound
Anaphase is the performance of Ohad Naharin, the famous choreographer and artistic director of Batscheva Dance Company from Israel, which had a successful international tour in the 90s. By integrating dance, theatre, rock music and film in short fast scenes this choreography exceeds the limits of dance. ANAPHASE. THE FILM is an effect of a creative collaboration between Ohad Naharin and Levi Zini, film’s director who managed to bring the experience of watching a live show to the cinema audience. The film isn’t a registration of a performance, but an electrifying translation of the choreography to the film medium.
