Cast-Offs

Directed by: Vered Yeruham
52 Minutes, 2015

What happened to the worn sofa we discarded after our visit to Ikea? What became of the kitchen dishes we left by the dumpster? Cast-Offs depicts the journey of discarded items from the heart of consumerist Israel to the periphery and the Palestinian Authority, where they come back to life.
The film exposes an underworld that exists alongside our consumer reality – a transparent existence of transparent people whose livelihood depends on the objects we discard offhand, without even giving a thought to their fate.
