Israel2019documentary22'Konkurs krótkometrażowy (2020)
Difficult growing up of a Jewish boy in the post-war Poland, a musical adventure and drugs. Under his jovial image, Joza conceals an adventurous biography that could be shared among a few people. Who is he today? Without hesitation, he could be called a jolly good fellow. Open and funny, he is passionate about his job of a guide in Jerusalem. He finds a common language with Christians, Arabs and Jews. Local residents like him and tourists listen to him with attention and interest. It is worth to stop for a while and get to know him better.
