Quentin Told Me
All that Daniel ever wanted to do was to make movies. All he ever did was sit at home, waiting for rejection slips from the foundations sponsoring young filmmakers, until …. One day, Quentin Tarantino appears in Daniel’s dream, and tells him to break into a video store and steal a camera. With glazed eyes and an M16 rifle, Daniel goes into the local video store and takes hostages, in order to get money from the Israel Film Fund, to finally shoot his film. He manages to befriend his hostages, but problems arise when the underground movement, the “Fighting Israeli Cinema”, joins the fray and declares a revolution.
