Alma Harel - Filmmaker
Born and raised in Israel, Alma Har'el is a music video, commercial and film director, best known for her documentary Bombay Beach, which took the top prize at Tribeca Film Festival in 2011, received a nomination for a 2011 Independent Spirit award and has been taught in several universities, including Harvard’s Sensory Ethnography Lab and Film Center, as a genre redefining work. In her most recent music video for Sigur Rós titled 'Fjögur píanó', Har’el directed Shia Labeouf in a provocative and hypnotic dance piece. The video was applauded as a unique artistic achievement and led to their collaboration on her new film LoveTrue. Har’el is famous for her ability to artistically blur the lines between documentary and fiction, effectively utilizing choreographed dance sequences and inspired musical choices in a surreal, dream-like poetic meditation on life.
