Berlinale Talents alumni Daniel Carsenty wrote and directed 'After Spring Comes Fall', an espionage-drama about a Syrian woman forced to work as an informer which won Best Feature at the Zsigmond Vilmos Festival in Sziget, Hungary. His second film 'The Devil's Drivers', a documentary about a Bedouin smuggler, premiered at TIFF in 2021, won the Special Jury Award at the Thessaloniki Documentary Festival and was nominated for the Cinema for Peace Award.
