Survival and Persistence
First and last: we've already shot and edited the film! We are now set for the next Phase - Post Production. But let us tell you about the film & what we have done so far:
"Radical" is a full length feature film, a thriller set within a world of mix genre': Political action drama and Neo Noir crime story. It uses multi plot character structure to portray the oblivion of the Israeli society and the bursting violence which emerges from it.
This project initiated within the walls of "Impro Acting School". Since the cast was made only of acting students we've had only our passion to tell our story - a rough script and actors. We had neither budget nor crew. We worked hard together to identify the right locations and succeeded to recruit a dedicated crew. We took off to our principle shooting in summer 2009 but did not complete the shooting. We had to wait until the autumn of 2010 in order to shoot 6 more days. We then started editing, and in the early winter of 2011 we completed 2 more shooting days. After another year of editing we finally reached the picture lock stage. We had several test screenings in order to feel the audience’s reaction to the film, made some adjustments and here we are: we have a final cut!

Le Cinéma
"Radical", as the title suggests, is a film about violent change.
Sometimes change can be revolutionary and global and at the same time might be personal and subtle. Regardless - it always comes from a deep and uncompromising place, when you know it's the only possible way.
"Radical" is often considered as something extremely dangerous. The true meaning of the word comes from Latin: "Root". The most truthful & fundamental notion everyone perceives of us. Our film tells the story of those who lost their roots, and without them all there is left is the violent echo of this beautiful word: Radical
H.E.L.P.
Yes - we have a Dynamite movie. Yes - audience react strongly to the film.
SO WHY WE ARE HERE ASKING YOU GUYS TO HELP US?
There are still a few important things to be done in post-production such as the editing and design of the sound, composing original score, mixing, adding special effects and more. Those are things we cannot do ourselves and that require talented professionals. (You can see the details below.)
The Gang
Omer Reis - Director, Co-writer
Born in Jaffa and raised in so many places without the ability to remember where. My act of Radicalism is present: 4 years in making this movie and still counting
Avi Malka - Producer
Head of "IMPRO - The acting school" is also the one who decided one day that he is going to produce micro budget feature films with his acting students. This is definitely an act of Radicalism!
David Stragmeister - Cinematographer
One of Israel’s most promising cinematographers has already made his mark in Hollywood as he was the 2nd unit Director of Photography in "The Iceman". His act of radicalism was to say yes to Omer about shooting "Radical"!
Anna Shnaidman - Writer
Red Head on the outside, psycho to the inside. She wrote the part of the revolutionary group in the film with emotional approach. She IS radicalism by nature!
Assaf Shalita - Writer
A father. A husband. A Novelist. A dog owner. A romantic soul. Has a beard. Isn’t that enough to be considered radical ?!?
Mayan Rogel - Writer
Writing Machine. A woman of compassion and power, all in one. She is a Tae-kwon-do Master. Again: She is a Taekwondo master. Radical person? C'mon....
Oz (Zico) Guttman - Film Editor
Publisher of the Guttman collection for film editors – a never-seen-before annual professional book for film editors. He drinks tea in the morning, noon and evenings - summer or winter. The man literally invented Radicalism.
Angelica Berman - Line Producer
She will get what she need. She will get what she want. She's gonna kill you with a smile. A Femme Fatal ? Well maybe, but hell of a producer. Her act of radicalism was asking Omer: "What's the budget ?" There is no budget he replied. "OK - I'll do it !" was her answer
Rotem Moav - Composer
The man who was born in a Kibutz in the Israeli desert, moved to L.A. to work on films with movie stars such as Christina Ricci, Michael C. Hall and David Carradine. He mixes contemporary music style with the soul of a deset child. Check out Rotem's website. What about Radicalism? He's one of the gang! Isn’t he??
Rony Gammer - Assistant Director
As we know - a day is Composed by 24 hours. Ronny was awake, breaking down scenes, eliminates time table troubles 27 hour a day. Every day. Oh - and he also made a Cameo as "Alex the photographer" in the film ! there for, I won't say nothing about his Radicalism....
