WHITE EYE
Tomer Shushan
A man finds his stolen bicycle and it now belongs to a stranger. In his attempts to retrieve the bicycle, he struggles to remain human.
The Israeli film, WHITE EYE, has a universal message about the tension between grace and justice - and how our own cultural biases can influence how we respond to that tension.
Striking cinematography and strong performance left me engaged throughout this twenty minute one-shot-take. It haunts me still……. — Lauren (Head Programmer)
