Anaphase
Producer
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.
Late Summer Blues
Producer
A group of close friends celebrate the bittersweet changes coming to their lives during the summer of their high-school graduation: adult responsibilities, adult romance -- and the soberingly adult fact that some of their number are being drafted into the Israeli army. This has very much the feel of a high-school beach-party movie -- with music, and in Hebrew -- until a sudden and disturbingly realistic reminder of their own mortality finally slashes through the kids' cheerful, close-knit obliviousness.
