Mr Gaga, sur les pas d’Ohad Naharin - Tomer Heymann

Ohad Naharin is one of the greatest choreographers in the world. Through this documentary, which was made during a critical period in Naharin’s life, we meet the man gifted with an extraordinary artistic integrity and vision, demanding, stubborn and profoundly original. He is also a politically engaged artist, who is just as known for his artistic work as he is for his political views. Over more than eight years, the Israeli director Tomer Heymann filmed rehearsals of the Batsheva Dance Company directed by Ohad Naharin, then mixed these sequences with phenomenal archive footage. The result is an extremely sharp, intense documentary and a triumphant success with audiences.
Mr Gaga won the Public Prize at the Festival South by Southwest (USA – 2016), the Critic’s Award at the Tempo Documentary Festival (Sweden – 2016) and the Best Documentary Award at the Sofia Film Festival (2016).
