"My Love My Love"
(International film festival

Haifa Israel Jurys' Review)

 

The movie is welcome in many festivals,

awarded first place as Best Narrative Short in the Haifa International Film Festival:

 

In the film, "My Love My Love" Igal Peeri has created a remarkably innovative language through which he touches upon the subject of pain and loss.

 

Using the technique of photography-stills and a surprising soundtrack,

he weaves a well-structured tale in which reality and the absurd intertwine,

transforming a harsh cry into a thundering, unnerving, thought provoking whisper".

Beautiful, lyric, ironic and sad movie

From the review written by: Yoseph Netzer (“Weekly” Magazine)

 

Written after the third screening – and I'm afraid I still haven't seen it all… 

  

One of the movie’s characters, a young man, attempts to build a house out rocks and mud: materials that he finds lying around him. This "house" never reaches completion during the movie. The work on it is usually only to release tension. The character likes to crouch down on the corner column of the house like a big desert bird, without moving, as if immersed in nirvana.

 

This man crouching down, together with the last scene: a wild horse galloping in circles around a garden bed, are the most powerful symbols of the movie. They stick with you in your subconscious long after you have left the cinema.

 

The strength of an artist is in his ability to completely identify with his characters up to the point where he is able to view the world through their eyes.

 

This movie reveals Igal Peeri as a true artist of the silver screen. He produced a movie that contains everything that the Samar people cherish: Poetry, beauty and naivety.

 

Beautiful, lyric, ironic and sad movie – a creation of Igal Peeri.
