Karni Arieli, Saul Freed

Karni and Saul are an Israeli-British directing duo who create mixed-media films, commercials, and music videos. Together, they make “casual fantasy” films in which they combine beautiful photography and film with high-end animation and magical elements. Visual pleasure and emotional narrative are important elements in their art. In 2010, they directed the short film Turning for BBC, which was nominated for a BAFTA. Their second short film, Flytopia (2021), was commissioned by Film4 as part of a short-to-feature scheme and has toured the festival circuit and been screened worldwide.
