Pictures of his life (2019)

Amos Nachoum is the world-famous Israeli underwater photographer. It seems he is fascinated only by the creatures which other people find fearsome: anacondas, polar bears, leopards, sperm whales, and killer whales. He sets his fear aside and takes their photographs in maximum proximity. Amos’s dream is to get underwater without protection and photograph the Polar bear. He makes it happen at the age of 65 - despite the fact that Polar bears often attack people, killing or maiming them - homo sapiens are but a part of their food chain. Nachoum is a life-long nomad who has no family. He does not keep in touch with his sister or his father, even though the latter was almost on his deathbed at the time of Amos’s latest work trip. Amos lives only for his strange and dangerous profession, in which he has been - and remains - the best. It was the incurable PTSD that drove him to it - Amos’s time in the army during the Yom Kippur War left a deep trace in his soul. Picture of His Life demonstrates all the details of Amos’s deadly dangerous journey to Canada, where he finally filmed the Polar bear innocently frolicking in the water.
