YOU HAVE A CHOICE! Israeli Anti-Militarists Speak

YOU HAVE A CHOICE! Israeli Anti-Militarists Speak

While registering for the War Resisters International “Globalising Nonviolence” conference in 2006, I learned that Israeli peace activists would be there and brought a cameraman with me. For a long time, though, I had no film project....

Finally, I realized that the "Korsakow System" would be ideal for presenting these activists. My interviews with four Israeli anti-militarists finally found their place in an online interactive video that's adorned with excellent work by Active Stills photojournalists and some of my photos from my Fair Trade: Palestine? research trip. In the 132 short films that make up “You Have A Choice! Israeli Anti-Militarists Speak,” Dorothy Naor, Sergeiy Sander, and Ofer Golani speak about their personal backgrounds, political views, and activism, complemented by Eli Fabrikant, whom I filmed in 2010. The project was hosted by Jewish Voice for Peace on their "The Only Democracy" blog – until Adobe Flash was discontinued. Unfortunately, reconstructing it is very tedious.
