Episode Synopsis
INSCRIBING IDEAS TO MEMORY. Amos Gitai is an Israeli film-maker, internationally known for his documentaries and feature films about the Middle East, the Arab-Israeli conflict, and personal and collective memory. Born in Haifa, Israel in 1950, Gitai was wounded during the Yom Kippur War in 1973, when a medical evacuation helicopter in which he was travelling was hit by a Syrian missile. He has drawn on biographical, familial and generational themes throughout his career, as well as the trauma of war and the celebration of life in the face of adversity. "You have to inscribe some ideas in memory" "We have to always take into account the other, because if we will only think about us it will never bring reconciliation" "The human answer to mechanical reproduction is to propose a non-linear association that AI cannot predict"
