The exhibition "06:29 - From Darkness to Light" is a moving production by the Museum of Tolerance, revealing the depth of the unimaginable evil that occurred on October 7, 2023. In the exhibition, you will be exposed to testimonies of brave women who survived the inferno, chilling documentation by photographer Ziv Koren, and performances that focus on the 'Arvut Hadadit' (Mutual Responsibility) that citizens of the State of Israel and Diaspora Jews have demonstrated since then.
In addition, the tour includes a visit to the exhibition Documenting Israel: 75 Years of Vision that will bring visitors together with spectacular archival photographs from the history of the State of Israel.
Visitors to the exhibition will experience the transition from darkness to light through the perspective of acclaimed documentary filmmakers Noam Shalev and Kobi Sitt, and through the lens of renowned photographer Ziv Koren. The exhibition takes visitors on an in-depth journey into the events of October 7th and the profound impact on Israeli society, undergoing unprecedented upheaval.
These testimonies are presented in an innovative video format on large screens throughout the exhibition space, providing visitors with a feeling of an intimate, face-to-face encounter with the witnesses.
The curator of the exhibition is Malchi Shem Tov, the father of Omer Shem Tov, who was kidnapped to Gaza and is still held captive by Hamas.
