Ten Times Dix, a film by Jennifer Alleyn, will be presented at the Tel Aviv Museum of Art on December 12, 2025. The film was previously screened at the same museum in April 2014 as part of the Tel Aviv International Student Film Festival, in the presence of the filmmaker.

The film won the Tremplin pour le Monde Award at the Festival International du Film sur l’Art in 2011.

Synopsis

A volunteer soldier in 1914 and a witness to the rise of Nazism in 1933, German painter and printmaker Otto Dix denounced horror through his art. For him, art was a weapon. With piercing lucidity, this great master unsettled and shocked audiences alike. The man who once said, “I must have the courage to paint the ugly,” left behind a body of work that is as disturbing as it is deeply human, casting a gaze upon the surrounding chaos that still resonates with America today…

Ten Times Dix by Jennifer Alleyn invites viewers to revisit the interwar period, the brothels of Berlin during the Roaring Twenties, Friedrich Nietzsche, and humanity’s urgent need to reach the truth.
