Winner of the Grand Jury Prize at the Miami International Film Festival, Someone to Run With is based on David Grossman’s award-winning novel of the same name. The audience roams the streets of Jerusalem with Assaf, a shy and somewhat awkward teenager who is given the task of tracking down Tamar, the owner of Dinka, a lost retriever. In the process of trying to locate Tamar, Assaf is drawn into the story behind the mysterious disappearance of this talented young musician. His curiosity and imagination lead him on this long and precarious mission. This dark, yet poignant film follows Assaf and Tamar on parallel journeys – both determined to help others, both forced to summon the courage necessary to face difficult, daunting and dangerous encounters. The pace is fast, the story is captivating, disconcerting and ultimately hopeful, as the two prove themselves on their accelerated paths to self-discovery.
