The Film
Dying Beauty
It documents the salt formations of the Dead Sea across 2021 and 2022 — a landscape that forms and disappears fast enough to be filmed, as the level of the sea keeps falling.
- Shot from
- It was shot from the air, from land and from within the water itself.
- Production
- One of the most spectacular and invested landscape film produced in Israel, most of the investment of the intensive project that lasted a year (2021-2022) with weekly visits to the Dead Sea, was to build materials for the film — timelapse shots, motorized sliders, a professional drone and underwater photography.
- Music
- The film was produced by original music by Ariella Zeitlin.
