PERPETUAL NIGHT
Synopsis
“What goes on in an image?”, cinema often asks us. “What happens in the person who looks at an image?”, it asks, albeit less frequently. “What happens in the person who sees their own image while looking at an image?”, it almost never asks. These three questions make up the puzzle that documentary filmmaker Alexandrowicz proposes for his character, but also for himself and, more decisively, for us. This game of deforming mirrors reflects the power relations between Israel and Palestine, but also between the camera and what it films; between a film and the one who watches. (E. V)
