Born in 1992 in Jerusalem, experimental filmmaker Rachel Gutgarts is a graduate of the Bezalel Academy of Art and Design. My graduation film, A Love Letter to the One I Made Up (6', 2017), has been screened at numerous festivals. In 2020, I moved to France to produce VIA DOLOROSA (10’, 2023) with MIYU Productions. After the premiere of VIA DOLOROSA at the Semaine de la Critique at the Cannes Film Festival in 2023, I began my studies at Le Fresnoy – Studio national des arts contemporains (Vera Molnár cohort, 2023–2025). There I produced HOW DO YOU SING A SONG TO THE LORD IN A STRANGE LAND, a multimedia installation presented as part of the Panorama 26 exhibition in Tourcoing.
