1341 Frames of Love and War

Southeast US Premiere

Winner of the Best Director Prize at the Docaviv Film Festival, 1341 Frames of Love and War chronicles over five decades of Israel’s history and focuses on the beauty and horror of humanity as captured through the photographer’s lens. As Israel’s most celebrated war photographer, Micha Bar-Am mines his extraordinary archive of over half a million negatives. For a year and a half, the acclaimed photojournalist allowed director Ran Tal (MJFF 2022 film What If? Ehud Barak on War and Peace) to enter his vast archive of negatives. Composed entirely of images that Bar-Am took over more than fifty years, 1341 Frames of Love and War reveals the enormous price that comes along with documenting wars and provides an intimate portrait of an artist. It is a remarkable love letter to the power, beauty, and complexity of photographic imagery.
