My series is a collection of images focusing on street photography of the Orthodox Jewish people
Something changes in Jewish religious people Especially for the Jewish Purim holiday where they wear costumes, go out to the streets, dance, communicate with strangers, happy and smiling, get drunk because this is part of the "mitzvah" most often see drunken, smoking teenagers. They are completely the opposite of what you see on a normal day. On a normal day they are quieter, more closed, and do not communicate with strangers. In the photos I took pictures of the streets of Bnei Brak, a religious city in the suburbs of Tel Aviv, which on Purim transforms into a huge festival in which everyone goes to the streets dressed in costumes, dancing in the streets. The Jewish religious people coming out of their skins at that day, they are more liberating... it feels that it is the only day that they are completely feel free
