Feature
Artist Nathan Coley travelled to Jerusalem to explore and record the city and its life on film, focusing on the phenomenon of Jerusalem Syndrome, a rare travel psychosis specific to the holy city. Afflicting between 5 and 10 people a year, the syndrome is characterised by intoxication of the Holy Land. Those affected can be found at holy sites, chanting, singing and delivering sermons as if living in the time of Christ.
