Sapir's School of Audio and Visual Arts congratulates alumnus Omer Daida who won on July 8, 2021 First Place in Docaviv's Student Film Competition, for her film, "Herd"!

For the past three years, Sapir's students have won First Place at Docaviv's Student Competition Award! Omer joins Smadar Plagi, with her film "Home" in 2020 and Shir Hori with her film "Shira Tama" in 2019. Docaviv is Israel's leading annual international documentary film festival.

"Herd" is a documentary about ten-year-old Na'ama and her father Itamar who owns a farm raising cattle for meat. Na'ama becomes emotionally attached to the cows and sheep raised on the farm, while Itamar sees death as part of the cycle of life. Together they strive to connect their different perspectives.

Production: Roni Caspi, Editing: Almog Ganot, Sound design: Noam Barkat, Ami Arad, Music: Dana Maimon

Other Sapir winners at Docaviv include, alumnus Hadas Neumann's film "Two People Will Come with Balloons", which won the Next competition; and Director of Sapir's BFA program in Soundtrack, Music and Sound, Yishai Adar, who composed the soundtrack for Docaviv's Best Israeli Documentary Film Award 2021, "Summer Nights".
