Prove it

Hadas Neuman (Israel)
Col / 15'38" / In Hebrew with English subtitles
 
Ayala wants to prove that she is a real dancer, but keeps failing in doing so. With shame and disappointment, she is about to give up when the emerging exuberance of Mahane Yehuda Market in Jerusalem shows her she has something else to offer—her special dancing point of view.

Artist’s Statement

Between a cinematic narrative work and a dance film, Prove it presents a journey that moves from despair to acceptance. The piece uses the expressive language of dance and creates a kind of visual dictionary that helps to transform the everyday movements of all of us into the magic of a real dance, assimilate it into our everyday life. In doing so, it helps us look at the world as it is, and allows its enchanted rawness to penetrate us.
