My name is Fredrik Rubin, Im a Swedish documentary film maker. Im going to Israel during the 22nd of october until 2nd of november. Im looking for people who would like to see and maybe help me screen my new documentary in Israel.

The 55 min documentary follows the story of the Davis Cup matches between Sweden and Israel. The matches was presented as something fantastic for the town of Malmo 2008. During the winter of 2009 the conflict in the Middle East to overshadow everything.

Authors, journalists, activists and politicians explain their views on the matches in this film. Will the game be stopped and what will happen? Are Israelis really evil? Are Palestinians really terrorists? Who is anti-Semite? Should the matches be played?

Could you help me with this in any way? I only have a few contacts in Israel and need some help.

All the best,
____________

I've just been browsing your portfolio here, and find your drawings to be exquisite; it's also great to see you've tackled such a broad range of media also - I imagine that you may have dabbled with ZBrush also, being a Maya user?
all the best and thanks for sharing :)
