The Zilberman Foundation is being established in honour of the film producer Misha Zilberman, and is set to give spotlight to the next generation of filmmaking. It aims to encourage and showcase new work and to nurture and support the next generation of creative film talent.
We believe in creating opportunities to connect people who share passions for cinema, we believe in coming together to learn from the well known film talent, we believe in establishing partnerships that give stage for dialogues to encourage new ideas and preserve a long standing legacy of creative filmmaking.

In Memory of Misha
A chance encounter led to an opportunity and Misha Zilberman’s lifetime love affair with cinema began. He started sweeping studio floors, in time his films swept awards in a career in which he produced more than forty feature films. Described as someone with “endless courage to speak the truth and make everyone feel loved” his life defined what makes great cinematic storytelling. Our foundation is inspired by Misha’s story, we now wish to provide opportunities to young filmmakers to speak their truth and win hearts with new cinema.
