Short Biography
Yair Qedar (Hebrew: יאיר קדר, born June 13, 1969) is an Israeli filmmaker, civil-rights activist and cultural critic. His academic training on 20th century Hebrew literature (Tel Aviv University), propelled him into to The Hebrews — a trans media project on the Hebrew literary canon, centered on filmic portraits of the Hebrew writers. His documentary films — Bialik - King of the Jews, The 5 Houses of Lea Goldberg and The Seven Tapes of Yona Wallach, 'the Awakener - the story of Y.H Brener' and 'Simple Woman -Zelda' — aired on Israeli TV, circulated far and wide in cinematheques, community and cultural centers, in Israel and around the world (USA & Canada, Europe, Australia and Russia) earning several awards. The project, both digital and print, offers the films, a Video archive and several books. He is also the initiator of various media projects in Israel, in the fields of the conservation of culture, specifically Hebrew literature and language, and in the LGBT community such as the first LGBT newspaper Hazman HaVarod.
