163 : “The film had two effects on us It stimulated our thoughts, while simoultaniesly it invited us to meditation . Maybe this is due to Buddhist spirit, the Dalai Lama and Zen being cited . We were touched to learn about your grandmother’s hotel and her laborious life - only once a year, at Passover, she had no guests celebrated with her family . . . the film presented deep thoughts on architecture . A bell was ringing in me, when the fundamental and ubiquitous role of Patterns was stressed : ‘Pattern formation and pattern recognition’ in ‘Synergetic’ . The courtyard example intrigued me particularly : that emptiness acquires its significance and charm by its surroundings – the transition softened by arcades – twins of emptiness and solid columns . Nili’s film is a real present . “ Hermann Haken ( Founder of ‘Synergetics’, Prof . of Theoretical Physics, University of Stuttgart, Germany ) * * * * * “There was not even one piece in the film that did not stir our heart . . . Since I watched the film, its amazing images come back to my mind and arouse thoughts and longings . You managed to convey in once the child’s gaze, the feeling of the space, the materials of place and time . The rhythm, the music and above all the pure love for a woman that with ten fingers built a world and loving kindness for all people . . . “ Rachel Zeba ( Prof . of Architecture, Former Deputy Dean, Technion Institute of Technology, Israel ) * * * * * “Run to see ! great pleasure ! It is a film from another world - slow, lingering, in a way that makes it possible to truly listen to things, experience them and marvel at them . A corrective experience in the common face of the speed and jerks . “ Michal Grossman ( Teaching body cognition, Israel )
