AWAKENING

An elderly couple decides to perform a ritual to bring their dead friend back for a while and become young again in order to properly say goodbye.

The short film was created as part of the Haifa Cinema Forum and will be showcased on Haifa Film Festival SOOOOOOOON. 

Ask me for a link.

This film is a part of a big movie, which I'm currently working on.

We were working next to the fisherman's beach. The location should have looked abandoned and weird.

The car was supposed to be blue. But late in the evening before the shoot, the owner changed his mind. A touch (or perhaps a lot!) of producing magic, and we found a replacement. We believe it turned out even more harmonious.
