- One main thing that I have taken from this documentary is the very bright sunlight, natural stock footage, I believe that this stock footage fits extremely well to the naturalistic features within this documentary
- another main thing i have adopted from this documentary is the quotations dotted throughout, it is extremely natural and does not take you away from whats happening in the documentary, i love this technique.

- amazing idea that it gradually shows us the idea that they are in a desolate, abandoned house, as at the start we think they are just in a garden, normal.
- everything is not as it seems, and then it unravels more and more as the story goes on
- love the shots of the frog chasing the butterfly, as we follow this story, more and more is revealed
- the ending is extremely juxtaposed with all of the lights and music and 'party' happening with the frogs, then all of a sudden the dead body floats to the top of the pool.

- The girl is alone and this water is her happy place when they come to this place for the summer
- All of the men that kicked her out were horrible and then when she returned one of them gives her necklace back - this can show that there is hope for her to find love, like her sisters and she will not be alone forever
- The battle of women vs men and also religion is extremely present, and the use of the men standing up while she is in the water can show the power and control that they have over her - very interesting and upsetting for the viewer to watch

A deeply personal exploration of adolescence and the difficult moments that define us, Shira Haimovici's צל בקיץ () is a provocative look at a scarcely explored Israeli conflict that gives voice to a growing number of women. A coming-of-age tale that is incredibly specific to young girls growing up in Israel, Haimovici's film is gorgeous, poetic, and brave in its unyielding authenticity to the rising tension from Ultra-Orthodox Hasidic Jewish men and the inevitable gender aggressions caused by a clash of world-views. Delicately addressing religious boundaries, Summer Shade unapologetically confronts social and cultural issues with an emotional awareness that few filmmakers have been able to grasp.

The events that take place in Haimovici's film are based on her own experience. One summer day while the now London-based filmmaker was visiting back home in Israel, she and her friends from Jerusalem drove out to a pond on the outskirts of the city to dodge the summer heat. It was a wonderful day in the watering hole until it was suddenly disrupted by a young Ultra-Orthodox Jewish man who told them they must leave since he "wants to do his Tevilah" (Judaism ritual immersion).

Confused and unsure of what to do, they left the pond feeling like outsiders. It wasn't until Haimovici did some googling that she realized how common the occurrence was. She discovered that there was already an organized group of women who protested the behavior weekly because in many cases humiliation and even violence would sometimes occur. As a filmmaker, Haimovici felt compelled to shed light on what was happening since, being a local issue, it wasn't something that the larger population was privy to.

"That pond was just a pond I visited for the first time in my life", the director explains, "but I began to wonder - what would happen if it was the pond of my childhood? What if it was the beach near my house? The garden where I grew up? The frustration of those who fight for women's equality in the ponds became clearer than ever, strong, and inspiring for me and led me to write my grad film Summer Shade."

Wanting to give the film an even more personal touch, she chose to tell her story through the eyes of a teenage girl based on herself and how she grew up in a country where the conflicts are numerous and deep. On the cusp of adulthood, Gal played by first-time actress Netta Roe compellingly confronts those who discriminate against her gender, ultimately ushering her violently out of childhood in the process.

"Women's Exclusion from public properties and gender-based discrimination are crucial and urgent topics in Israel and that's why I believe in its urgency to put it on the screen," says Haimovici. In her quest to tell an authentic story, Haimovici enlisted the help of Ayala Herschler, a talented Ultra-Orthodox writer and film student at Ma'aleh Film School. Joining Haimovici to work on the screenplay, the Ultra-Orthodox characters in Summer Shade were written with such depth and nuance that their portrayal could not be defined by good and bad, leaving much for the audience to decide for themselves. While the young women in the film are richly drawn and portrayed in an almost whimsical way, the men juxtapose that female fragility with such contrast that you can't help but pick a side.

Evocatively challenging gender discrimination from the Ultra-Orthodox community, Haimovici's story doesn't shy away from a truth that too many young Israeli women face every day. Gorgeously shot and wonderfully nostalgic, Summer Shade is the kind of film that leaves a powerful impression.

Winner of the Best International Short Film Winner award at Little Wing Film Festival, Summer Shade was also an official selection of BFI London Film Festival, Aspen Shortsfest and more.

- Visually see their stories
- Experiments with breaking £10 with a stranger - very interesting to see the action play out and also to see their reactions to people saying no
- Actuality with contributors and Man on the street when he lets him break £10
- All 3 contributors meet up together as if the viewer is a fly on the wall
- one-shot sequence, the women speaks directly to the camera and says a fact about tattoos - didn't like this as it felt out of place and didn't match the style of the doc at all
- Liked the ending shots of them taking makeup off ending on their real selves not something that is fake.

- All about all-female tattoo shops
- There is some issues with audio - sound is very glitchy in some places
- PD speaking while the contributor is talking, let them speak
- 00:10:28 - awkward camera angle/placement, didn't feel right for the viewer.
- Good interesting stories from the contributors about why they hate that the tattoo industry is very male-dominated and why they are female only and how they got into tattooing.
- Locations aren't very interesting not very unique and doesn't feel like a tattoo shop vibe that a viewer may be expecting
- Do not see much tattooing actuality.
- Would have been nice to see and hear customers' opinions about the female-only tattoo shops and why they go to this specific one
- There is too much focus on shots of the main interviews, boring.
- Cutaways are very irrelevant to the main interviews
If I was to do this documentary I would:

- Add customers views and opinions and why they go there
- So much more actuality and definitely interview while tattooing
- More personal Questions about their tattooing and their tattoos too.
