I shot „Ethics of Survival“ while visiting my family in Brazil. The whole shoot didn't take more than two days, the last days, before returning to Germany. The film is a concise portrait of my brother, Rudi: a magician, boy scout, survivalist, Krav Maga expert and Jewish youth leader. Other members of my family also appear in different ""roles"", in documentary or staged scenes, as for instance during our Yom Kippur dinner or on Krav Maga demonstrations.
