Biography

Growing up in the Tel Aviv area, Adi Shinar (b.1984) was constantly exposed to arts and culture and focused mainly on painting. After her military service she moved to Jerusalem to study philosophy at the Hebrew University. After being urged by her parents to study something practical, Adi chose to study film at the Tel Aviv University Tisch film school. “Noam” is Adi’s thesis film. While still in editing, Adi was accepted to a prestigious film making workshop held in the Arava, Israel’s desert strip on the Jordanian border. From 150 initial applicants and 18 semi-finalists Adi’s script for a short film, "Sunstruck", was selected for a full production grant. Adi is currently developing the script for her debut feature film titled "Who I am, Really" within the NFCT female directors' workshop.
