“Women Dancing “(2004, video, 9:22 min)

Einat Amir uses a well-known Israeli song in order to create a complex discussion of femininity.  The “optimistic words” describe the functional dance appropriate for women of different age groups, within their given reproductive role  The words turn into a seduction song of one woman to another, a harsh monologue, a melodramatic and complex drag, that crosses butch toughness with emotional fragility.
