There is a question that has been tossed around by philosophers and art critics for decades: how much should an artist's intention affect your interpretation of the work? Do the artist's plans and motivations affect its meaning? Or is it completely up to the judgment of the viewer? Hayley Levitt explores the complex web of artistic interpretation. [Directed by Avi Ofer, narrated by Bethany Cutmore-Scott, music by Marcos Tawil].
