Snow tapes
Mich'ael Zupraner 2011 docu 14 min.
Snow Tapes is a documentary short made with the Al Haddad family, who live
in the Israeli controlled sector of Hebron, in the West Bank. Using a split
screen technique, the film features a communal family viewing of two home
movies shot by the Al Haddads. On one channel, the video shows clashes with
neighboring settlers taped during a recent snowy weekend. Adjacent, the
film's second channel observes the family as they reflect on the footage
itself. Sometimes shocking images of life under attack from settlers, are
in this way juxtaposed with the humorous digressions, cinematographic
critiques, and overarching warmth of the family's home life.
