Guttman was a fearless anti-bourgeois aesthete and visionary of Israeli cinema. Tragically, his life was cut short in 1993, amid the harrowing backdrop of the AIDS crisis that swept through New York City during the late ’80s and early ’90s. During his brief lifetime, Amos Guttman remained a red flag for the notoriously conservative Israeli film establishment. A Romanian migrant, he never truly found his place in his new home. He was gay and made the nation’s first movies on the subject. He was an artist who wanted to make films not for the masses, but for the few, even if they were sprinkled across the globe. TABOO: AMOS GUTTMAN, offers a unique glimpse into the artist’s final days. It features his last interview, a never-before-published testament to his enduring spirit.
