KAFKA FOR KIDS / ROEE ROSEN
feature film, estimated length 95-110 min
Selected for FIDLab, the pitching forum of FIDMarseille International Film Festival, where it won the Camargo Foundation award, as well as the main prize, the Air France Panavision award.
A cross-generic film, combining a fiction comic-drama with a documentary and a musical. Kafka For Kids offers an exposition of the unique structure of Israel's military law in the occupied Palestinian territories, and the complex and troubling ways in which it legally defines childhood. Through this shift, the film itself undergoes a metamorphoses.
