Richard Goldgewicht

Richard Goldgewicht has written and directed an eclectic mix of films including documentary, animation and live action. From his award-winning short Blue Rondo (2000), inspired by Dave Brubeck's experimental Jazz track 'Blue Rondo a la Turk' or his comical portrayal of the Middle-Eastern conflict in Tel Aviv (2004), to his feature debut Pablo, about the famed designer and counterculture artist Pablo Ferro (Rotterdam Film Festival Premiere, 2012, featuring Angelica Huston, Andy Garcia and the voice of Jeff Bridges), or the forthcoming Gameplay, about the history and impact of videogames, Richard has tackled a variety of subjects, always with a light touch and sense of humor. Working on several international co-productions in Brazil, UK, Mexico and US, Goldgewicht splits his time between his native Rio de Janeiro and Los Angeles.
