Documenting the Art Installation “Going for a Ride?” made by the Palestinian Artist Vera Tamari.
The installation is a statement on the aggressive and deliberate crushing of hundreds of privately-owned cars by Israeli tanks in Ramallah and El-Bireh during the military incursions in the two towns in 2002. It focuses on crushed cars because of the powerful meaning cars usually carry: freedom, the open road, travel and movement.
In the film, the cars are brought to life again by searching into the memories of those who rode them.
