"The coolest film organization in the world." —John Waters
"May 1973, I buy a camera. I want to start filming, by myself and for myself. Profesionnal cinema does no longer attract me. To look for something else. I want to approach the everyday. Above all in anonymity. It takes time to learn how to do it.” With these words, David Perlov starts his epic film Diary. Shot over a period of three decades, first on 16mm and later on video (Updated Diary, 1990-1999), it is considered today the most striking work in Israeli documentary filmmaking.
- Ariel Schweitzer, Cahiers du Cinéma
