Description
‘Bystanding: The Feingold Syndrome’ is an immersive interactive VR docufiction. It explores the testimonials of passersby who witnessed a rowing champion drowning for five minutes and did not jump in to help. 'Bystanding' recreates that Tel-Aviv riverbank from the summer of 2009 and allows participants to immerse themselves in the bystanders’ deepest confessions.

Jasmin remained submerged for almost five minutes, while on the riverbank, dozens of passersby learned of the accident. None took any action to help. In the experience, participants have the chance to wander the riverbank, embody bystanders’ points of view, listen to their thoughts, and witness their deepest confessions from that day.
