Yuval Abraham, winner of best documentary award at Berlinale, has received death threats. He has not returned to his country due to death threats and has had to cancel his return flight.

The matter has taken on such a dimension that Abraham has stopped speaking to the media. “He wants to lower his profile, in light of everything that is happening,” says a friend who prefers to remain anonymous. The Berlinale room erupted in intense applause that has brought problems to the Minister of Culture, Claudia Roth.
