As part of the advanced directing course for a master's degree in cinema, students are asked to tell a story that begins with an image. Usually the sources of inspiration for student films come from the reality that surrounds them. The advanced directing course challenges the students to look for more complex sources of inspiration.
The students were asked to freely choose a still image or a painting - the work of well-known artists from Israel and the world, from which they took the narrative idea and stylistic inspiration. And so, reality, which is the source of inspiration for the artist or photographer, is mediated to the students through photography or painting, and focuses their cinematic thinking on the single processed frame.
The result is a fascinating and focused collection of films, in each of which the selected still image or painting is reproduced, in a way that allows one to experience the conceptual and aesthetic basis of the film.
