STRIVE FOR THE PRESENT

Strive for the Present is an imaginative documentary that revolves around the character of a lonely old man embodied by Gilad kahana. We follow a day in his life, wandering the streets, searching for food for survival or for random dialogue, which, in fact, is also for his survival. The old man’s poetic journey frees his world from all norms in search of an alternative existence that will redeem him.

Strive for the Present is an uncompromising attempt to be always present, and to always discover beauty in everything, even if it hurts.

Directed by: Oded Farber and Gilad Kahana
