TRIBECA: Becoming... Award-winning Filmmaker Tom Nesher (Come Closer)

  • Summary

  • Tom Nesher - Director & Writer

    Born in Los Angeles in 1996, Tom Nesher is a graduate of the Jerusalem Sam Spiegel Film School. She directed four award winning shorts, and has created dozens of unique freeform documentary pieces as a journalist at one of Israel’s most prominent networks. Come Closer is Nesher’s debut feature film.

    Logline:

    When Eden’s beloved brother suddenly dies, she takes desperate measures to fill the void. Once she discovers he had a secret girlfriend, these measures assume a passionate and dangerous twist.

    The 2024 Israeli film Come Closer won several awards, including Best Film at the Ophir Awards, and will represent Israel at the 97th Academy Awards.

    Come Closer won the Viewpoints Award at the 2024 Tribeca Film Festival. It recognizes films that present "bold and exceptional voices" in independent cinema.

    In this episode, we talk about:

    • Her first feature film ‘Come Closer’ after directing three short films

    • The 5 year filmmaking process which included 4 months of rehearsal

    • Adapting the film as she processed her grief over the years

    • Tom’s experience at Tribeca Film Festival

    • Her unique process with her actors: they read it, they improvised the scenes, and then Tom rewrote it

    • Her advice for filmmakers is to trust and listen to your crew and your team
