Иди и живи
Lieutenant
События фильма происходят в конце 1984 года, когда руководителями государства Израиль было решено привезти на Святую Землю несколько тысяч репатриантов из Эфиопии, которые проживали в трудных условиях в пустыне. Больная женщина, спасая своего сына, посылает его в Эрец Исраэль, но сама остаётся в Эфиопии. В Израиле мальчика усыновляет семья выходцев из Туниса и вскоре он становится полноценным гражданином Израиля с гордым именем Шломо, несмотря на то, что мать воспитала его христианином. Он ощущает себя израильтянином, выходцем из Туниса, носителем французской культуры, не забывая о своих корнях. Впрочем, трудности абсорбции не миновали его. Он страдает от расизма, ему постоянно напоминают о тёмном цвете кожи.
Amos Guttman, Film Director
Self - Actor
From 1977 to his untimely death in 1993, Amos Guttman directed six films, all of them deeply personal reflections of his own life. Interviews with lovers, family and friends--including some of the most important people in Israeli cinema--tell the gripping story of a strikingly handsome, charismatic and deeply passionate gay man who has become a revered cult figure in Israeli cinema.Interviews with the late filmmaker and fascinating footage of him on the set convey the same passion that comes through in scenes from his films, lovingly selected by documentarian Ran Kotzer. Like Fellini, Guttman transformed his dreams and everyday conversations with friends and family into integral parts of his pictures. He is most remarkable for his striking and original use of the frame. Every shot is a treasure. Amos Guttman dared to portray subjects that were taboo in his society, and his search for the right of individual expression is the connecting link of his works.
