Rafi Bukai

Died in 2003

Rafi Bukai, born in Tel Aviv in 1957, grew up in Kiryat Gat, where his parents ran the cinema he eventually managed himself. Struck by cancer at nineteen during his service in the Nahal, he then studied cinema at Tel Aviv University, where his graduation film became his first feature. His second, a costly international production released in 1996, failed. He produced the films of other directors, including Assi Dayan and Gidi Dar, taught cinema, and died in 2003, overtaken by illness.
