HAVE YOU HEARD?


Single Channel Video, 28:58m, HD and Installation

Have You Heard? is a documentary entropy film. It combines past iterations of a film made about The Black Panthers of Israel with new footage and voice over. It attempts to retell the story of the rise and fall of the movement through existing representation.  As it disassembles previous works by Nissim Mossek, the official documentuer of the Panthers, it breaks away from him in both narrative and narration, emancipating both director and agenda from the bounds of historical narratives to new readings. Slowly, the elements of the film degenerate, much like the story, characters, and their memory.
