Har’el is famous for her ability to artistically blur the lines between documentary and fiction, effectively utilizing choreographed dance sequences and inspired musical choices in a surreal, dream-like poetic meditation on life. Stephan Holden of ''The New York Times'' wrote about Har'el's film ''Bombay Beach'': “() looks and feels like a fever dream about an alternate universe. Suffused with a sense of wonder, it hovers, dancing inside its own ethereal bubble”.〔http://movies.nytimes.com/2011/10/14/movies/bombay-beach-documenting-faded-glory-review.html 〕 Alma is married to writer director Boaz Yakin. == Early life == Born and raised in Israel to a Jewish family,〔(Anthem Magazine 2001 )〕 Alma Har’el began her work as a photographer and a performer of live video mixing in music concerts. One of Har’el’s most prominent projects as a VJ was a collaboration with the Balkan Beat Box, “a performance-meets-dance party that blends electronic music with hard-edged folk music from North Africa, the Middle East, the Balkans and Eastern Europe.”〔(essayrecordings )〕 Their first album included an 11-minute video titled: ''The Balkan Beat Box 1st show ever - Digital Diary of Alma Har’el''. The video was edited by Har’el and features Har’el performing on stage and mixing live video art alongside the band. In an interview for Oyster Magazine she recalls: “I never studied film, so that (VJing) was my film school” () I wanted to feel as though I was playing videos like a musical instrument — editing them live, with people reacting. That still has a big impact on me to this day.”〔(Oyster #99: Film Director Alma Har'el | Fashion Magazine | News. Fashion. Beauty.
