Etgar Keret: een waargebeurd verhaal

Short documentary, 2017, 67 min.

In his very short stories, Israeli writer Etgar Keret plays an impressive game with fantasy and reality. His own life story also comes across as a modern fairy tale. This hybrid documentary combines interviews with animations of his fictional stories and reconstructions of his anecdotes. The film explores why telling made-up stories is essential for Keret’s survival. Besides Keret, other writers are introduced, such as Jonathan Safran Foer and radio personality Ira Glass (This American Life).
