Post-film Zoom Q&A with filmmaker Margarita Linton.
A visit to her estranged father’s Tel Aviv exhibition of self-portraits renews the filmmaker’s relationship with him, but not the way she expected. As she unearths a lifetime of her feelings of neglect through conversations with members of her family, she begins to understand how much her father’s absence has eroded her sense of self, yet she remains determined to make meaning out of the void.
Margarita Linton emigrated from Ukraine to Israel when she was five years old. She graduated from the Sam Spiegel Film and Television School in 2012, where she received the Galit Rozen Directing Award and the Class of 2012 Promising Director Award. She works as a film editor for documentaries, TV series, and short films, as well as an editing mentor at Sam Spiegel film school and Hadassah Academic College.
