The First Home, from the Conversion Project

From the “Conversion” Project

Nurit Sharet and Tami Gross’ work, The First Home, recounts the testimony of an officer in the Israeli army who deports three Palestinian women as told in the voice of one of the filmmakers. The imagery shown is a series of glimpses into Tel Aviv apartments during the routine hours of the evening. The immoral actions in the work, the deportation of the Palestinian women, the two artists filming the inhabitants of these apartments without their consent, and the appropriation of the narrator’s voice, all create a poetic of immorality, one that raises questions about the banality of evil.

Director: Nurit Sharet and Tami Gross

Producer: Tami Gross

Cinematographer: Nurit Sharet

Editor: Nurit Sharet

Supporter(s): New Fund for Cinema and Television

Film Name in Hebrew: הבית הראשון
