A conceptual immigration to the Jewish Autonomous Region (JAR) in Russia. The concept derives from the implied duty of Jews in diaspora to immigrate (make Aliya) to the State of Israel. The JAR was a Stalinist alternative to Palestine for Soviet Jews. It still exists today.
The video appropriates Zionist ideology, combining it with the artist’s personal history to construct the vision of an alternative desire, and an alternative homeland in the JAR.
