CARMEL
In Tel Aviv one Saturday morning, with traces of rain from the night
before on the pavement, the Carmel market slowly begins its activity.
Someone passes by on a bicycle, someone else on a motorbike, while
a few elderly people enjoy the early morning peace and quiet.
“Spontaneous, shot and edited intuitively, Carmel came about from
an unexpected kind of presence and tries to retain it. This primitive film
captures a moment and extends a state of things and a state of being.”
