Biography

Rafi Pitts' films have received international recognition and numerous awards. His debut feature, Season Five (1997), premiered at the Venice Film Festival. His second film, Sanam (2000), was praised by French critics and likened to The 400 Blows (1959). In 2003, Pitts showcased his provocative documentary Abel Ferrara: Not Guilty at the Official Selection of the Locarno Film Festival. It's Winter (2006) debuted in the Berlin Competition, and the following year, the Seattle International Film Festival honored him with the Emerging Masters Award. His fifth feature, The Hunter (2010), was nominated for the Berlin Golden Bear, and Pitts received a Best Actor nomination for his leading role. In 2012, Ben Affleck invited Pitts to act and serve as his personal consultant on Argo (2012), which won the Oscar for Best Picture the next year. In 2016, Pitts premiered Soy Nero at the Berlin Film Festival, earning his third Golden Bear nomination.

Born in 1967 in Iran, Pitts grew up in Tehran, living in a basement flat beneath a post-production studio. During the Iran-Iraq war in 1981, he fled to Britain. He graduated in 1991 from Harrow College - Polytechnic of Central London with a BA (Hons) in Film and Photography. His first short film, In Exile (1991), was screened the same year at the London International Film Festival. During the 1990s, Pitts relocated to Paris and collaborated on films with Leos Carax, Jacques Doillon, and Jean-Luc Godard.
