The Film: "Ritual"

The film “Ritual” does not deal with the major events themselves, but turns its gaze inward, toward the margins of what is happening and toward Israeli society in the year when it confronted the greatest trauma in its history. Moving between events and locations throughout the country, it portrays a divided and polarized society seeking comfort and a sense of control through rituals in the public sphere: from memorial ceremonies, protests, and escapist events, to nationalist marches and religious worship. Through these various rituals, people respond to reality and try to reshape it. At the same time, the gaze repeatedly returns to the landscape of Gaza as it is gradually destroyed—a depiction that itself becomes part of the national ritual.

Tickets may be canceled up to two days before the performance, subject to a 5% cancellation fee. After that, cancellation is not possible.
