“Etgar Keret: Based on a True Story” is an unconventional biography, created in the spirit of Keret’s works by the Dutch duet: the director Stephane Kaas and the scriptwriter Rutger Lemm. Fascinated by the writing of the Israeli author, they decided to shoot a film in which they explore the phenomenon of his fascinating short stories. As a result, on the screen family histories are intertwined with anecdotes told by friends, and the documentary smoothly turns into fiction, seriousness into absurdity, and Keret himself enacts the story of his own life in his unrepeatable style. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“Which place could be better for the premiere of this crazy film than Krakow? Why, Keret is the master of the short story and the scriptwriter of many short films. We would like to have him longer at the festival, but he will drop in only for a moment, because he is preparing another film project, this time in Paris. I am sure that the screening of the film in his presence will be the achievement of the up-coming edition,” emphasises Krzysztof Gierat. <\/span><\/p>\n
