Gaza Canal ,תעלת עזה | Tamir Zadok
Tamir Zadok’s film Gaza Canal ,תעלת עזה is nothing less then brilliant. Zadok’s humorist approach to this politically charged subject matter is genius. If you haven’t seen yet this film you absolutely must watch it. Just beware that the film completely rely on fabricated contents and “facts”.
Gaza Canal, describes the Canal’s construction. It was created for the opening of a Visitor Center on site, and forms a part of the Center’s permanent display. For the current exhibition it was shifted to the Gallery. The Rabin Visitor Center in Gaza Canal offers a visitors route which includes a virtual tour of the Canal, historical documentation of the digging work, and interviews with the project initiators. The Gaza Canal was created over the course of eight years, during which 61 kilometers were dug by 15,000 Jewish and Arab workers. It began as an American initiative and saw many crises along the way. Over the years, however, it became a symbol of change and improvement, a paragon of a healthier reality, creating a reality of prosperity and tourism, industry and commerce in the “island of Gaza.” Zadok’s chosen tactic employs tools from the field of propaganda, such as interviews and documentary photographs, which constitute the body of documentation indicating that the construction of the Canal was the optimal humanitarian act for implementation of the Israeli fantasy—”to throw all the Arabs into the sea.”
