Cinema as a family affair: Successful director Steven Spielberg brought his most personal and probably most beautiful film to the award ceremony at the Berlinale: “The Fabelmans”. A conversation about the first steps as a director and a life with anti-Semitism.
Mr. Spielberg, you describe The Fabelmans as a semi-biographical film. How much is made up, what is true?
The audience can choose. Some viewers will see the film as a bittersweet documentary about my formative years, others as a collection of wacky fairy tales.
