SUMMARY:Intersections at JFF 2025
DESCRIPTION:For the second year in a row\, the festival takes place during a time of war. Wars. Hostages remain in Gaza\, destruction continues there and here\, lives are being lost. The pain surrounding us cannot\, and should not\, be ignored. In such times\, some confront reality at hand\, while others turn to imagination\, envisioning worlds far removed from the culture of violence and offering glimpses of a different future. \nThis year’s Intersections Program navigates both paths. \nThe Experimental Cinema and Video Art Competition  \nThe Experimental Cinema and Video Art Awards features seven artists with new works that engage with the present moment through varied\, poignant\, and poetic forms. \nOrientations – Daniel Kiczales | High Alert – Hadar Saifan | Carousel – Guy Hamiel | Escape Will Get You Tonight – Noa Simhayof Shahaf | A Word Required – Lyri Milo | Spirits of War – Moti Brecher | Child – Yaron Attar \nRuti Sela\, HUGS 2025 \nIn her new exhibition at the Mamuta Center\, artist Ruti Sela presents four works exploring the body\, interpersonal connection\, and technology. The central piece\, Hugs 2025\, is a reimagining of her first video work\, Hugs—a performance piece filmed on the streets of Jerusalem in 1999\, in which Sela sought out hugs from strangers. \nShooting Booth \nThree Films by Ruti Sela followed by Conversation between the Artist and Roee Rosen.\nPresented alongside Sela’s solo exhibition at the Mamuta Art Research Center. \nNathaniel Dorsky \nNathaniel Dorsky\, born in 1943\, continues to make films to this day. He is an experimental filmmaker whose work focuses on light\, movement\, and color. His films are non-narrative\, and this program offers Israeli audiences an encounter with a cinematic world entirely different from the familiar\, even within the realm of experimental film. \nTribute to Experimental Filmmaker Benjamin Hayeem \nBenjamin Hayeem (1933-2004) was an Israeli-American experimental filmmaker\, director\, writer\, and editor who created experimental films\, fiction features\, including the controversial The Black Banana (1976)\, documentaries\, and educational films. Born in Bombay\, India\, he was part of avant-garde filmmaker Maya Deren’s circle. Influenced by the montage principles of director Slavko Vorkapić\, he applied them extensively in his work. He was a member of the Living Theatre and part of New York’s bohemian art scene. \nNARCISA HIRSCH – A Famously Unknown Filmmaker \nExperimental filmmaker Narcisa Hirsch (1928 – 2024) was born in Berlin and moved to Argentina before WW2. Hirsch organized art happenings during the late 1960s. She turned to experimental film and video\, becoming one of the most celebrated yet not broadly known South American experimental filmmakers. Her work was shown worldwide in museums and festivals. \nmore information at the JFF website

SUMMARY:Intersections at JFF 2024
DESCRIPTION:This year’s Intersections program is non-festive yet much-needed. Being in the middle of the war with so much suffering and death\, the hostages still not released\, we ask ourselves about the meaning of art in such dark times. We believe in the power of art to put life and creativity over destruction and death. \nThe Experimental Cinema and Video Art Awards showcases eight visual artists from Israel’s most recent films. \nRustle – Yasmin Davis | Adam – Amir Yatziv | I am not afraid of the Apocalypse\, I’m afraid you don’t love me anymore – Leila Erdman-Tabukashvili | Runway Freefall – Alona Rodeh | Can’t Wait to Die – Akim Dolinsky | Little Boney and his Winter Extinguisher (at last!) – Jonathan Omer Mizrahi | Planet of Luck – Roy Menachem Markovich | “Who Am I Without My Story” – Shalom Hai \nWinners: Leila Erdman-Tabukashvili and Jonathan Omer Mizrahi \nAt the Mamuta Art and Research Center curator and scholar Judith Lenglart presents an exhibition of short films\, videos\, and photographs from the 1970s\, a decade during which performance\, body art\, and video art emerged in Israel. The works often express a confrontation of shared traumas\, like the Holocaust and the Yom Kippur War\, with identity and gender matters\, as well as the artists’ personal experiences. Participating artists: Avraham Eilat\, Gideon Gechtman\, Yoram & Alina Gross\, Haim Maor\, Joshua Neustein\, Georgette Batlle & Gerry Marx\, Dov Or Ner\, David Perlov\, Yocheved Weinfeld. \nTHE CELLAR (1963) by Nathan Gross will be shown at the Jerusalem Cinematheque. About one year after the Eichmann trial\, director Nathan Gross delves into the traumas of the Holocaust for the first time in Israeli film. Written by Gross and Shimon Yisraeli\, the script includes events culled from the director’s own life. It is the first film in Israeli cinema to adopt a Holocaust survivor’s perspective. Presented by curator Judith Lenglart. \nOnce again\, we will pay homage to one of the most acclaimed experimental filmmakers\, Chantal Akerman. GOLDEN EIGHTIES\, is a playful musical Akerman directed in 1986.Through this colorful\, recently restored escapade\, Akerman’s sharp eye examines a multitude of topics\, from capitalism and feminism to Jewish identity. Presented by scholar Ori Levin. \nTAKING VENICE by Amie Wallach is a poignant documentary recounting the 1964 Venice Biennale and how the American government intervened to assure Rauschenberg’s work would be the winning one that year. \nBRITISH WOMEN OF THE AVANT-GARDE: A FEMALE MAZE features four women filmmakers whose films are gems of experimental cinema. The filmmakers presented here have an innovative and a very personal perspective on their surrounding world. This program emphasizes the transformative influence these artists have had through their provocative works and practices that shaped the feminist art movement. \nDuring these turbulent times we are enduring we hope to bring a space for comfort\, calm\, perhaps some smiles\, and some thought on this year’s Intersections.
