Notes: The publication delves into Dani Gal's trilogy produced between 2011 and 2018. Each film approaches the complexities of historical accounts between 'victims' and 'perpetrators' in the context of German, Jewish and Arab histories from a different 'blind spot' in historical knowledge. Cinematic tools are applied to illuminate and stage these undocumented aspects of real historical events. -- Publisher website
