Israeli-American filmmaker Boaz Dvir tells stories of ordinary people who transform into trailblazers: an inner-city teacher who becomes a disruptive innovator (Discovering Gloria); a Holocaust survivor who sets out to kill his father’s Nazi executioner (To Kill A Nazi); and a flight engineer who leads a secret, illegal operation to prevent what he views as a second Holocaust (the prize-winning A Wing and a Prayer). He serves on the Journalism faculty of Penn State University, where he also directs the Holocaust, Genocide & Human Rights Education Initiative.

Olivier Cojot-Goldberg is the son of Michel Cojot, the subject of the movie To Kill a Nazi, and he is interviewed in the film. He was a living witness to his father’s heroic story and was himself one of the hostages in the Entebbe raid. Olivier graduated from the California Institute of Technology and received his Master of Science in Electrical Engineering from the same institution. He acted as Managing Director at Kidder Peabody and later served as Vice Chairman of the Ellington Management Group.
