Terminal

Times, bodies, languages and places are intertwined at the terminal to the life journey of a young woman. The present, with its loves and disappointments, is examined together with the family’s history in which the experience of immigration and the pain of the language resulting from it are still very vivid. Together with them, a possible future of the place where she lives is laid out. This future is already embodied in the construction sites and the busses, on the beach, in the light rail and in the continuous change of the urban landscape – and of the landscape of the soul. All these are a platform for thinking of the human body, intimacy and of violence.

Zohar Elmakias was born in 1987 in Ramle and lives between Jaffa and New York. She is a researcher, writer, and a translator.
