Je suis un songeur. Songeur doesn’t translate well in English, it roughly means someone halfway between
thoughts and dreams, or in both.
Ronen Eldar is a French/Israeli artist and filmmaker, whose nomadic childhood and life make it difficult for him to call anywhere truly home. This in-betweenness has nurtured an open curiosity towards others. With a candid approach, he explores themes around perception, how one decides to exist and navigate through this world, and the myths we surround ourselves with.
Working across fiction and documentary, his films have screened at BAFTA and Oscar qualifying festivals such as Encounters, Short Shorts, Flatpack, Cinequest, and Brussels Short Film Festival.
