Filmmaker Statement

“I think it’s enough, isn’t it?” is an autobiographical film I created during my father’s Shiva (jewish week long mourning ritual). He died suddenly and surprisingly in mid March 2020, right before the first COVID-19 quarantine in Israel, just as new social limitations kicked in. Closed off in a big house in the middle of nowhere, with no visitors allowed, I started searching my father’s belongings. I found old Mini DV and VHS tapes with footage of me as child, photographed by my Dad, most of which I didn’t even remember. I dug through the footage, drew out the moments I found interesting, and recreated sort of an encounter with the figure of who my Dad was for me, while unfolding the story of his death, in an attempt to process it myself.
