In Ad De'Lo Yoda Bartana recorded scenes from the Purim festival, in which the Jewish community celebrates its historical rescue from annihilation at the hands of the Persians. We see a parade of people dressed in biblical costumes through the crack in a door; the observer's perspective is aligned with that of a young boy whose back is visible in the foreground. The video is positioning the viewer as an outsider while, those in the parade are shown as a closed community.
