Etgar Keret: Based on a True Story
I made this feature film together with my friend Rutger Lemm, whom I know from high school. Back then we both loved the short stories of Israeli writer Etgar Keret and 15 years later we decided to make a documentary on him. The end result is a mixture of documentary filmmaking, fiction and animation.
It won an International Emmy Award, two prizes at the Prix Italia, two prizes at the Master of Art-festival in Sofia, ‘Best Documentary’ at the Jewish Film Festival in Warsaw and the Jury Award at le Fifa in Montréal.
