Time for a story of insane competition, the admiration and envy for a role model, bringing father and son to a final, bitter confrontation.
That’s exactly a description of Footnote, Israeli drama directed by Joseph Cedar, that is, as you already know from our previous reports, scheduled to premiere In Competition at this year’s Cannes Film Festival. So check it out.
Footnote is “…the story of a great rivalry between a father and son. Both eccentric professors have dedicated their lives to their work. The father seems a stubborn purist who fears the establishment.
His son, Uriel, appears to strive on accolades, endlessly seeking recognition. But one day, the tables turn. The two men switch places when the father learns he is to be awarded the most valuable honour one can receive. His desperate need for recognition is betrayed, his vanity exposed. Uriel is torn between pride and envy.

Entitled Testimony (see pic taken from the set above), this promises to be a political bomb, and an intriguing and unconventional film in its structure. More than six years ago, actor Ofer Ein-Gal came across a thick folder containing dozens of testimonies describing events in the West Bank from both Palestinian and Israeli soldiers. With the support his former life partner, Elkabetz (both are openly gay), Ein-gal turned this into script form. People who live in big city of Tel Aviv know what happens in the territories, but refuse to face the music sort of speak. Many films were made on the subject, so as to get under the viewer's skin, the two decided...
