The image
of an uprooted ancient tree always comes to mind when I think about the themes
in my documentary on Iranian Jewish emigration as a result of the Islamic
Revolution of 1979. Over the years, I've searched online for images and videos
of uprooted trees native to Iran, but haven’t come across anything suitable.
The other day when I was walking with my friend Betsy on a path in the Lower
Galilee, she pointed out an uprooted olive tree. I decided to go back and film
it. One technical difficulty I had was focusing in the bright sunlight. Here
are 5 short clips. I may weave brief segments from them into the film.
